Good to know I'm not the only one that struggles with an extrovert child being an introvert mom! I wonder what it will be like in the teen years for us!

However, I believe you have come to realize the best part about blogging. Your blog is exactly that...your's! Focus on what is important to you. Blogs and blogging friends understand.

Quie...Introverts in the Church is such a good book. Quiet is also another good one about introverts. More of the science behind it all I guess. I'm the same way. I've been incredibly quiet on my blog lately. Just too much else going on in life with my mother's illness and transplant, my sister's pregnancy, having a 13 year old and commuting 35 minutes one way to school, and God calling me to other things. As you said, there isn't the time to sort it all so the blogging takes a back seat. And that's okay. It's how God made us. As far as having an extroverted child? Completely understand. My husband and I are both introverts and our son is the biggest extrovert. Oh dear sometimes it's all I can handle.

We are in the world, but we not of this world, are we? <br />And there are seasons of life too - we can't do it all, all of the time.<br />Blessings to you ... and we'll appreciate it when you can share with us.Janet a.k.a. swanlady21https://www.blogger.com/profile/11967516564810839917noreply@blogger.com
