What Do You Think


My SIL Nat(sorry bloggers, she doesn't trust you. 4 my eyes only) had a great idea on her blog today.
I am just like her, the 'glass is half empty' kinda gal.
Sometimes we get down on ourselves for all the things we did not accomplish in a day.
Many a day has ended with me going....
if only this...
but I didn't do that..
oh just a little longer...
She decided to write down all the things she did get done daily.
Sort of a journal or list type of way.
I think this is a great idea, and I'm gonna follow her lead.
Sometimes us moms are too hard on ourselves. I know I really bite off more than I can chew most days.
But what an example we can be to our kids especially if we can show all the positives!
Thanks Nat for giving me the nudge!

Hey Jen,
Could you send Natalie my email address and ask her if I could read her blog? I grew up with her and would love to "catch up" by reading her blog.
Thanks,
Tricia
P.S. thanks for letting me read yours, you're hilarious!

Isn't that the truth? We are far too hard on ourselves and our family and everything that we do.
Great ideas!!!
