Keeping It Balanced

Hello from Colorful Colorado!  My name is Janae and I live at the edge of the beautiful Rockies with my five kids and wonderful husband.

We’re a busy family who loves to work together, learn together, and most of all, play together.  Whether we’re BBQing on a summer night, sledding in the winter snow, or hiking in the fall, our family loves to have fun.

With five kids, as you can imagine, life can get pretty crazy.  My days get quickly filled with ortho appointments, schoolwork, piano lessons, sports practices, playgroups, diaper changes, meal prep, housework, etc.  It’s easy to get lost in all the busyness, but one of my greatest goals is to keep our life balanced (A goal, mind you, not always a reality).

To do it, I use my strengths…a little something I call “Effective Efficiency”.   I love to figure out the quickest and best way to accomplish my daily tasks so that I have plenty of time for fun.  (Or in some cases, how to make the tasks fun!  Two in one! Yeah!)  It’s the only way I’ve been able to do all that I have to do and still have time for what really matters to me.  Hopefully I can share a few tidbits about how to balance it all with all the other busy moms, women, and wives out there.

Welcome!  I can’t wait to share more with you!
