I sat down with my husband last night to look over the next three months. I cried. This is our 10th summer. Shouldn't I have this down by now? Today I called one of our favorite babysitters and asked her to set aside a few days in June. That felt a little better. Anyone have a few fresh ideas for surviving the May to August insanity?

Do you ever feel like you should not have to be involved in every aspect of church life/ministry just because your spouse happens to be the youth pastor? Many people support their spouse's career without having direct involvement with every detail of their job. I love what we do in ministry and am not burnt-out. Sometimes I have a hard time saying no. How do you handle saying no to things without seeming stand-offish or distant? Do you ever feel guilty because you want to say no to church activities? Thanks for any feedback you can give me. God Bless you all! I have a question for all of you and would love to hear what you married to youth pastor people think.
