Even Supermoms get tired

Heidi... I am exactly like you when it comes to receiving help from people... here is what I have learned though. While I am independent (too much so for my own good sometimes)and I like to do things myself and not impose upon others- I don't have the right to take blessings away from others who desire to serve me. When I look at it from that perspective, I have a difficult time refusing help from people who genuinely want to serve me and my family. You are a Supermom! But part of being a Supermom is delegation. Even though you have super powers, you can't do everything all the time. While I still don't follow this advice as often as I should (I volunteer for WAYYYY too much crap) It has helped me a lot. So my house may not be as clean as I want it to be, I have a good husband who helps me, and (for the most part) happy kids. That's what matters, right?
