picture me {im}perfectly.always late

i think i can do it all.

and i think i can do it all quickly.

hence, i am late.

everywhere.

by like 5 minutes.

for instance, i think that i can 

feed, 

clean up and

change L 

ten minutes before 

we need to leave to pick up D from preschool.

when in actuality, it takes a lot longer than that.

actually, it takes me a lot longer to 

do everything than i think it will.

and that's not just because i have three little ones

who love to stop me from accomplishing anything.

do any of you struggle with this?

because you know and i know 
that i cannot do it all.

and certainly not quickly.

(and yes, D's chops will be taken care of this week)

head on over to 

the loud silence

and be encouraged as she shares 

some things that i think we all struggle with.

picture me {im}perfectly

is a weekly project to reveal that we don't have it all together.

i will post a 

picture me {im}perfectly

blog post every wednesday 

where you will be able to link up to your blog

revealing that:

you are not picture perfect,

your kids are not picture perfect,

your house is not picture perfect,

your crafts are not always picture perfect,

let's 

encourage, 

inspire and 

remind 

other women 

that none of us have it all together.
