TAKE A DEEP BREATHE IN AND RELAX!!!!!!

   Boy have I learned alot in my years lol.  I know of one thing that I wish I would have learned much sooner in life.  That is to relax and not worry about what others think about me and the way I am raising my children and running my home.  What alot of wasted time trying to keep up with everyone else and always looking over my shoulder.  Here is a very simple motto to live by for All you young wives and mothers and single ladies.  IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!!!!  The only people you need to worry about how you are doing as a wife and mother and well women is:  YOURSELF, HEAVENLY FATHER, YOUR HUSBAND AND YOUR CHILDREN.  So just ask them!!!!!!  Two people that greatly influenced my thoughts on this was first  my Grandmother Adena Bertoch Rydalch.  She believed that it was ok to let your house get a little cluttered at times, your kids never really pay attention anyway. To her it was more important to spend one on one time playing with your kids and boy did she do that.  You could always find her out in the yard high jumping or playing basketball or reading to her children.  Her children will not remember how the HOUSE looked while growing up. But they will remember how their MOTHER ALWAYS SPENT QUALITY TIME WITH THEM.

       The second person that taught me to relax when I was a young mother,Was Melissa Evans. I was a young mother of 3, at times, out of control BOYS ha ha ha ha.  I was sitting in a sacrament meeting and the Bishops wife happened to be sitting behind me lol.  Oh my !!!!!  Well after the meeting I felt a hand on my shoulder and it was her.  She simply said.  RELAX, be glad that you have active children.  She said I have two brothers, one of them is quiet and reserve and well now grown up a little strange lol. Really he is a hermit.  The other brother was just like your boys active. Well now grown up he is my favorite brother because he enjoys life.  He loves doing things and talking to people.  So she said just relax and stop worrying and enjoy those boys of yours.  You know what...... THEY BOTH WERE RIGHT!!!!!!  I am so glad I listened! Because I am POSITIVE that to RELAX means a HAPPY FAMILY LIFE!!!!  xoxoxox
