The Six "Be's"- Gordon B. Hinckley

Everyone needs some respite in their lives. This is particularly true of mothers who are on duty twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. It's not good for children to have a stressed-out mother. It's important for our children to see us balancing all aspects of our lives, including our personal needs. We should allow them to see us enjoying a good book, pursuing a hobby or having a nap when we're tired.
We really appreciate it when family members, especially our husbands, and others make it possible for us to have a break in our routine.
See that all these things are done in wisdom and order, for it is not requisite that a man should run faster than he has strength. Mosiah 4:27
