    Making sure that I don't overload myself, I like to keep myself busy and have a little habit of saying 'Yes' to a few too many things.

    ROFL

    My challenge is the same as Miss Carly. I need to learn to say 'no' more often.

    Trying to spend more time learning to see the world as my girls do.

    I am loving my son for his ability to be so focused that he can block out his world, but the challenge I have is to be able to bring him out of it when he needs to enter our world!

    Focusing on finishing a task ... rather than look at all the half started things, say 'oh too hard' and starting something new! With that rolls in the time factor too.

    I too say yes too often and end up wondering how on earth I can juggle everything! But I'll get there. I'll find my groove.

    What about you?

    I'm with Rosie...I've been working on completing projects. I'm good at starting new things but need to work on finishing and tying loose ends!

    Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and sharing with me the great idea of making dinosaur fossils! I'm totally going to use it for the party. And I'm so glad you stopped by because I LOVE your blog! I'm your newest follower and I look forward to reading more of your posts!

    Balancing it is the key :)
