Lists for Busy Moms

Filed in archive Parenting on July 20, 2006

My mom was a big list maker. She had a hand-written list for everything: from shopping lists to dinner menus for the whole week. She even had our daily schedule and activities for each summer listed down and posted on our refrigerator door.

When the age of computer came, all these lists were typed and printed out. It drove us, the kids, crazy. However, it did get the job done. And now that I am a working mom myself, I have realized why my mom was crazy with lists.

If you are a list person yourself... or, you would like to start making a few lists, here are some great lists from MomAdvice (one of my favorite websites) that are ready to be dowloaded and printed:

Weekly Planner
Comparative Price Shopping List
LunchBox Notes
Monthly Budget Sheet
Diaper Bag Checklist

If you are having problems with getting things done, perhaps this might help you. Try it out!
