With school either starting or just started, depending on where you live, we are in full back to school organization mode. Every year we implement new systems to help us keep our schedules organized. With one kiddo in every sport under the sun, and two in elementary school still things get crazy around our house.
Over the years we have tried a lot of different “systems” and while some have worked a majority of them have fallen on the error side of trial and error. For me it constantly seems like I am organizing and re organizing trying to find what works for our family. On occasion or “system” has even been organized chaos.
I used to get frustrated when I would try so hard to be organized only to have it fail and then I got to thinking. Life never goes as planned, why should organizing our lives work 100% of the time? If we have to adapt to our life as kids grow, finances change, jobs and school schedules get busy why wouldn’t how we organize our life change to?
