Looking into my life from the outside, some may think it is chaotic.
Probably because it is chaotic.
One thing that helps each day is to not sweat the small stuff.
Do you remember many years ago….the series of books by that title?
Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff.
They were amazing books that helped put things in perspective. In the end, it is ALL small stuff.
Guess what? There is a brand new “Don’t Sweat…” book!
- “In the first new Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff book in nine years, Kristine Carlson shows how moms can live with less stress and more happiness. Kristine Carlson gives mothers tried-and-true advice that will empower them to find greater peace, joy, and harmony within themselves and their homes. Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff for Moms reveals how to: be a mom (not a friend), balance being a woman and a mom, pursue your passion (but not at the expense of your children, and reclaim your family time.”
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I like how each chapter can be read independently from the others. My personal favorite is Chapter 48 – When All Else Fails, Laugh! In our family sometimes that’s all this is left to do, laugh. We can find the humor in almost any situation.
This book is also the perfect gift for the moms in your life.
If you would like to read the first chapter, it is available for free here.
