How Routines Give You Freedom

I know some people don't love routines. They feel 'too structured'. They don't 'work for busy moms'. But can I tell you, routines don't have to be binding? I don't love hourly schedules. I don't love your schedule and to-do list dictating my life. But boy do I love a good flow and routine. Right now things are wonky with the kid's school schedules and I am SO thankful for these routines that are helping keep our family afloat, even when the days are different!
