Keeping

I want to be very present and very intentional as a parent.  I'm finding this to practically be many moment by moment decisions in a day.  My days, just like so many others', are full to the brim.

Being a stay at home mom is really about being mentally at home too.  

Keeping my brain on what's going on in our home, 

keeping my thoughts in tune to what's going on here, 

keeping my eyes really open to what the girls are doing and what I want them to be doing,

keeping my work, efforts and energy focused on the home and family first...

These are the little steps of being a mother and keeper of the home and doing it with excellence by grace.
