1)not feeling guilty for being in this mommy bubble right now and

2)to savor and enjoy the mommy bubble knowing full well that it is temporary and there will be a day that i am so involved i’ll wish i was back in the bubble….

I'm so busy serving and doing that I am sacrificing relating. Which means I am burnt-out, resentful, bitter, and not a supportive wife. I've replaced God with the church. It's hard for me to believe that God is good right now because the church situation is not good. And since my relationship with God is only serving and busywork in the church, I am not able to see God for who He really is. All I see is the fallen, human side of the church. So, one revelation I've had is that I have to work on my relationship with God, and realize it is separate than my relationship with the church. God help me!

I learned SO much, but my two biggest takeaways are: 1) Consider it a privilege to raise your children in the ministry. Take advantage of the perks like flexible schedules, having keys to the whole building, and unapologetically bring your kids to events even though volunteers don't. 2) Both my husband and I had a huge "Ah-ha" moment in the last general session when Doug was speaking on having an in the moment walk with God. He's a "quiet time" failure but finds strength and depth in relationship with God when he pauses for moments through out the day to connect and "Refuel." Okay and just one more . . . . 3) Often saying yes to something extra in ministry, even if it's good, is really saying no to your family. My husband and I have a lot of balance, but we found so much relief in being given permission to say no. It was interesting to hear the same story over and over from veterans. Amanda that hershey's confession is even funnier now that I've meet you in person. It was great to meet you all, no joking this conference was one of the highlights of our year.

I did, however, share the exact ah-ha moments as you. I especially shared #2 when Cathy said it is NEVER NEVER ok to sacrifice my family for the ministry. It was great to listen to you ladies talk about what works and what doesn't in ministry. also, I share the love of hershey's syrup. I have been caught by my husband with my face in the fridge. My method of consumption is to have a swig of chocolate and a swig of milk then shake it up in my mouth (like a 5th graders!)

Didn't get to see you, but Cathy was awesome. One of the main things that stuck out to me was that we need to let our kids know the expectations we have for them is because of our faith and morals, not because of who my husband is. Our first kid is on the way, coming in August, so I've been learning a lot of parenting stuff, especially going to the Partnering with Parents deeper learning track.

I'll try to post a few as I can articulate them. My head is still spinning - it's a lot of information to process in such a short time. One ah-ha that really blessed me was when we shared around the table of pastors' wives one thing that we love about youth ministry. Of the 7 women who had time to share, 6 of us said that the number one thing we love about youth ministry is seeing our husbands fulfilled in their work. It is so great to watch them LOVE what they do. We agreed that our husbands were at the conference, just bouncing like rubber balls, because they were so excited to be a part of it all. It was just nice to be reminded that there is a lot to love about youth ministry and that we are in this for the long-haul because our husbands are called by God to youth ministry. And, when they get to fulfill that call, they are so satisfied, it's awesome! I greatly enjoyed many parts of the conference and had several ah-ha moments.
