Love, love, LOVE these tips! I could have written some of those feelings in my own post because I do feel that way many days. Stressed, not sleeping enough, and not savoring the simple moments. Thanks for the reminder…needed it!

Good tips! I need to stop wishing for more than 24 hours in a day, though! .-= Jess´s last blog ..5 Question Friday =-.

Thanks for sharing these great tips to keep us moms smiling and feeling our best. Its a hard job, and it’s nice to be reminded how important it is to cut ourselves a little slack, too!

My tip is to give yourself permission to not be perfect. Some days you just can't do the dishes, grocery shopping, pick up and drop off kids, attend play dates, make three healthy meals and still look good doing it all. I've learned to limit what I do, and to feel good about doing that. .-= Allison´s last blog ..Is This the End or the Beginning? (SAHM Series) =-.

When I first read that article, the sleep tip really stuck out to me. Doesn't it say something like an extra hour of sleep per night brings more happiness than making an extra $30,000 a year? Or maybe it was 60,000. It was some crazy amount like taht. I'll have to look it up. I'd love if you'd link this post to Fishful Thinking Thursday...my Mcklinky is bare this week. :( .-= Kelli @ writing the waves´s last blog ..Fishful Thinking Thursday - "The best day ever!" =-.

Great tips. I have nothing better to add to this wise list, but maybe there’s a way to help moms go with the flow.

There’s this cool new tool that helps teach kids to work out conflicts on their own.

It’s called the Pocket Referee.
Give it a look. http://www.thepocketreferee.com
