I am feeling like such a bad mother. I have spent very little time with my children (or my husband) in the last three months and the next four weeks are not going to be any better. I can tell they are all feeling a little neglected and really starting to need some mommy time. Balancing time with them and my work is just about impossible this time of year, at least with the commitments that I made and need to fulfill.

 

Not only have I sacrificed time with them but I have sacrificed my health. I don't sleep much at all and my only exercise is my Thursday morning tennis clinic. It is a miracle I have not pulled a muscle in that clinic being that I am so sedentary all week! All I do is sit at my computer working (and unfortunately snacking instead of eating heathly meals). Bad mommy!

So, I have decided that I will dedicate an entire month to just being mom, taking care of my family and even myself! So, the studio will be closed from December 21st to January 24th. Of course I will be chcking emails and doing some "business housekeeping" when my kids are in school but I am not "officially open".

My au pair is leaving on December 20th and my new one arrives on Jan 22nd so this works out perfectly. We are even going on a much needed and well deserved carribean vacation for a week! I am SOOO excited, well not about putting on the bathing suit! The kids and my husband will have me all the time and we all can not wait!

I LOVE what I do. I feel so lucky to be doing work that I am passionate about. It's funny. I never really feel like I am "working". I love almost every minute of it but my family really needs me and I need them and some time off!

THANK YOU to ALL of my clients that have blessed me with this problem! Too much work is a gift that I am VERY THANKFUL for!
