Welcome Focus on the Family Listeners! If this is the first time you’ve visited my blog, poke around a little bit, read some recent posts, and take a minute to introduce yourself. If you subscribe to my blog (just fill in your email over there on the right) you’ll receive daily mothering encouragement by email each morning.
For my regular blog friends, today I’m bringing you encouragement in two ways:
1) On the Focus on the Family Daily Radio Broadcast. You can listen online HERE:
2) On the Focus on the Family Live Webcast from 11am-noon PT, 12-1 MT, 1-2 CT, 2-3 ET. You can actually participate in the discussion during the live broadcast. And if you can’t join in the live webcast, you can listen anytime at the same place online. The webcast is HERE.
Both of these free resources for moms are about “Tackling the Tough Questions of Motherhood.” I hope you can join in the fun.
And if you do, send some feedback my way! I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Jill, I just listened to the Focus on the Family broadcast. Thank you for sharing! I am a mother of seven. I have been married 10 years and love when I get a chance to have time for myself. It is often difficult to obtain, but I have a supportive husband and friends who help take care of children so I can have time alone once in a while. My husband and I also take time for date nights as well. It makes a huge difference in my marriage and relationships with my children and my husbands. I have shared your post on my blog with my readers as well. Thanks again for sharing! Have a blessed day!

Jill, I also just listened to Focus on the Family. It couldn't have come at a better time. I needed to hear about the management of anger. This morning I lost it. I was that mother Julie described 🙁 Both my girls and I were in tears when it was all said and done. My girls have forgiven me and I have forgiven myself. But it still saddens me that it got as far as it did. But then I also realized that I have not taken that time for myself lately. I am 8 1/2 months pregnant and losing a ton of sleep. My husband and I have taken a break from our usual weekly date night for various reasons. So, I am implementing the 30 minutes of "me" time when my husband gets home and I've gotten a babysitter for tomorrow night so my husband and I can spend some time together. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your experiences and helping me get my perspective back 🙂
