[quote=Anonymous]I have two kids who who are in different schools due to magnet programs. Both are in travel sports, both practice 5x week and are in scouts. Plus we are adding Sunday school this year and one kid wants music lessons. I am crazy exhausted too but I enjoy seeing my kids do what they love and I know it’s not forever. I can’t afford daily help but the biweekly housekeeper helps. I don’t think there is a secret sauce. Kids are exhausting but also rewarding. I wfh so I can adjust my schedule and work off hours. We cater food and freeze it in batches, we make the kids do chores, we say no to many volunteering jobs and carpool when we can. I also let things go, if we are just too tired, we won’t go. DH also wfh so we dont really need date nights. I have a master schedule written out and we divide and conquer. Hang in there, your 9th will be driving before you know it. You’re not alone![/quote]
