MP 025 : Creating Order in a Messy World




Messy Parenting: Catholic conversations on marriage and family show

Summary: “Half of the time I feel like I’m running an insane asylum… the other half of the time I feel like I belong in one. “<br> There are so many needs pressing on parents, especially moms, all day, every day. How can we prioritize our time and energy to create an orderly life for ourselves and our family? In the book A Mother’s Rule of Life, Holly Pierlot describes the Six Priorities of Life that can help us create a routine in our day and make decisions that will help us use our time wisely and effectively. Despite what your children think, mothers can’t do everything! Moms (and dads!) can create a balanced life by giving priority first to Prayer then to Person, Partner, Parent, Provider, and Periphery (everything else!).
