Some Encouraging “Mama Reads” for You!

It was a busy weekend here – with a fun sledding party and treat-filled and puppy and kitty bowl filled “Super Bowl Party” with the kids.  What did you do this weekend?  Was it busy enough to leave you needing some mama time today?  Here are some quick and encouraging reads that might help…

My Picks for Encouraging Mama Reads for Your Week Ahead:

• {Wishing Time Away} – We hear it all the time.  To cherish this time; that we will miss it when they’re grown.  But how often do we REALLY hear it?

“Countless people have told me to treasure these days. But I started to question if I was really hearing the words and wisdom? Or am I nodding my head but continuing to wish time away?”

• 20 Ways to Treat Yourself – Make sure to do SOMETHING this week – even if it’s something small – to treat yourself, Mama.

“I take long bathroom breaks to just read by myself without being bothered!”

• My Children Aren’t Perfect, I Hope You’ll Love Them Anyway – YES!  I think this is every mamas hope.

“Every child is different, in their personality traits, their emotions, their wants and needs.   And they are just that, children.  They are learning how to regulate their emotions, they are learning how to cooperate with each other, they are learning how to navigate their way through life.  And we are teaching them.  As parents we are slowly molding them into adults, who will hopefully one day be happy and successful. So when you are with them and the ‘bad’ overtakes the ‘good’  know that  it is a work in progress.”

• What Does it Mean to Parent the Heart? – Regardless of your religious beliefs, there is a great message here…

“When you tell your child every little thing he is supposed to do rather than placing the responsibility for his actions directly on him, you are failing to develop that child’s conscience.”
