LOVE HIM


This past month I have not been very positive.
There, I said it! I have struggled with being happy. I am thankful for all that I have, but I don't think I truly recognize how blessed I am. I let too many unimportant things get in the way of my happiness.

This past month I have been feeling unmotivated and stressed. There are so many things to do and so little time to do them all. I stress when I realize at the end of the day I didn't get much done. I haven't been very good at prioritizing my life.

I feel guilty at the end of each day when I realize I don't spend enough time with my kids. I feel like a bad mom. I am impatient. I am tired...I really could go on and on...but I won't. Instead of pointing out and focusing on all the negative, which I am oh-so- good-at! I have decided to look for the positive in each day. My plan is to blog each day about something positive/happy about the day. By doing this I am hoping I will focus more on the good each day rather than the bad! So, without further adieu, here goes... One of the good things about today.
JARED
I love this man very much and I am one lucky girl to have him! This morning as I was feeling unmotivated and pretty down on myself he listened and comforted me. He called in late to work and gave me the attention that I needed. I felt much better after he let me talk and explain how I was feeling. I am thankful for him in my life.
He is funny.

He is talented.

He is loving.

He is faithful.

He is dedicated.

But best of all, he loves me, no matter what.

He tells me every day how beautiful I am.

He is perfect for me.

Today I am thankful for my husband and best friend.

You are the most organized woman I know! You are such a good mom as well! Hey, if you think you are a bad mom, than there is no hope for me when I have kids. I think we all know that I have the shortest supply of patience in the family. You are beautiful and you are an example to me every day... you've got your stuff together. And I agree with everything you say about Dr. Jared, he is dreamy; )
BE CAREFUL ON YOUR BIKE!

I think that is so awesome that you are doing this everyday! I have been feeling the same way lately and it is so hard to recognize the positives when I have a list of negatives! Thank you for posting this. It is nice to know I am not the only one that feels like this sometimes. I have been having a hard time with things and it helped me reading your post to feel more positive!

Sometimes being a mom can be hard. I am glad you have a loving husband that cares and listens to your needs. That is wonderful!

I am sorry that you are having a rough time. I do have to admit that it is nice to know that sometimes others feel just like you do from time to time. Thanks for your post. Looking for the positive is a wonderful idea and something that I need to do more of.
