I am a mother of five girls ages 26, 22, 16, 12 and 8. The 26 year old is off to university so I only have 4 at home. With 3 bathrooms it is fun trying to get everyone ready for work and school but it does work! Just a time management thing!

As a mother of 9 (5 of whom are still home), I have to exercise in the morning after I nurse the baby and before the other children wake, or I probably will not be able to do it at all. This time of year, I can do that. It's much harder though when it's cold outside. I want to stay under my covers then.

As a mother of five (9,7,5,3,3) I think a bath does count! I am fortunate to be blessed with time for me. I use my exercise time to destress from the day and time to refresh for the family!

I have 9 kids still at home. Does a bath count as time for yourself?? HA! HA! HA! I just exercise with them all over the place, they are so used to it, they never even notice anymore! Hugs, Barbara

O.k. so for now I'm back to two kids, but during school breaks I have 5. How do you find time for yourself when you have 5 kids to care for?

I'm still working that one out!

thanks all!
