Perfect isn't the goal

"In the end, though, what my children and husband need most from me is not a perfect home or perfect training or a perfectly spiritual role model or a wife without faults - but a mother and wife who is committed to doing whatever it takes to love them and make a home for them."
-Sally Clarkson, The Mission of Motherhood

God doesn't ask us to be perfect...He asks us to be obedient. Our families only require the same :)
