Random Things I Wish Someone Would Have Told Me

(Or maybe a more accurate title would be Random Things I Wish I Would Have Listened to When Someone Tried to Tell Me)

• Put away the folded clothes as each load comes out of the dryer.  It is much less overwhelming to put away one load than five.

• When there are kids in the house, the housework will never be complete.  There will always be more that needs to be done.
• Time flies when children are little.
• Food does not last long.  Even if you think you bought enough groceries at the store to last a week, it won't.
• Doing small things everyday add up to big things in the long run.
• You will reap what you sow.  You will reap more than you sow.  You will reap later than you sow.
• Children will do in excess what their parents do in moderation.
• The grace of God is amazing.
• Love covers a multitude of sins.
