If your kids are anything like mine, they have an alarm that apparently goes off when their mother is getting anything done. And they just can't stand it! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02512158365021041194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757067787158700689.post-15676757494144246192012-06-20T08:41:58.198-05:002012-06-20T08:41:58.198-05:00Thanks.

I wake up a couple hours before my children so I can get some writing in, but since I stay home with them I don't have to write around a day job - I just have to write around four children! Thanks for these tips. And, hello!

Once I'm up, warmth is a big thing for me, too - I can totally relate to those slippers and the blanket! My writing time is typically late morning to early afternoon. <br /><br />Wanted to thank you for stopping by Life Lessons! Sorry to hear about your experience with skin cancer. Mine was pre-cancerous, but scary nonetheless. I still enjoy being out in the sun, but I've learned that sunscreen is my friend!<br /><br />You bring up an excellent point - it's easy to miss God's instructions when we're busy. And a teachable spirit IS critical! Have a blessed week!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11475395753533265087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757067787158700689.post-49445365185284640212012-06-19T05:39:06.592-05:002012-06-19T05:39:06.592-05:00Awesome!
