There are days you wish you could change your name. No more mama! "When can I retire as a parent?" Long week, extended conversations can leave you emotionally and mentally drained. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact All you do is give, give, give. And then when you're challenged again, you give, give, give. Raising children and guiding them through the stages of their life can be exhausting to the psyche. And then when you pile up life and your dreams, no wonder you feel like you're on a different planet.  This week has been a LONG week. My attention has been pulled in all directions. A few hiccups in my "plans" for what I wanted to accomplish.  You know when you're just tired. You don't even know why. But tired is the only thing that keeps you thinking, even though you're worn out.  Nothing makes sense. You're spinning your wheels.  In a brief moment, I blurted out, "When can I retire as a parent?". My children quickly chimed in. "Never!!! You never get to not be a parent. You have to be around for a long time." Now at first, that response was very flattering. However, when you think about it more with an emotionally-drained spirit, it doesn't seem fair. Why do I have to parent always?  Now granted, the stages of life will change. Therefore, your parenting style and how you interact with your child will evolve.  Bottom line. You're still a parent! So when you are feeling like it's time to retire, what can you do to dig yourself out of the pit? The K.I.S.S. ~ Know that you are called! Being a parent is a gift. I said this before I was one, and I say it now as one.  We are given a gift. We are called to be a parent, whether it's by accident or choice.  You are called. So when you desire to retire a gift that can't be returned, what do you do?
- Know that what you have is what is required. We sell ourselves short on comparison. You don't need to show up as anyone, but YOU!
- Know that this too shall pass. Life has seasons. Praise the Lord! The season that you're in will pass. 
- Know that you don't have to have all the answers. God has gone before you to prepare a way. This in itself is very freeing.
Know that you are called! So when those days are long and drawn out, God's got you!
