Lori Elliott is the wife of a pastor, holds a full-time job and is a mother of four, including a special needs child. Although motherhood can be overwhelming, stressful and chaotic, there are those magical moments when the joy and humor you find make all the craziness seem worthwhile. She occasionally gets five minutes of quiet, and uses her blog as therapy.
So far she has come up with the following rules for motherhood: 1) Running away doesn’t solve anything—you’ll miss the chaos and go back before you thought you would. 2) Don’t sweat the small stuff, like housework. The dishes can wait. 3) When you get overwhelmed, try to have a sense of humor, take a breath and let it go. 4) Life doesn’t go the way you planned, so trust in God to take you where you need to be. If we trust in God, even when we can’t see where he is leading us, we receive unexpected blessings that we wouldn’t have dreamed to ask for!
