Have you ever felt like you couldn't go on?
Have you ever thought that if you had one more day like the previous one you might just fall apart?
I have!! In fact it happens a lot around here.
Probably if every mom was honest--we would say we frequently have discouraging days.
So............what do you do to encourage the other mom's around you?
Now, I know what you are thinking--"I'm so busy that I don't have time to help anyone else."
But, I'm not necessarily talking about physical help--although that would be nice too.
I'm talking about words. (One of my favorite things by the way.)
Often I get so busy with all my own crises that I forget to notice and encourage the people around me.
It only takes a minute of time.
You could send a note.
Make a phone call.
Write an email.
Or simply drop in. (Maybe you should call first, or you might create more stress.)
I can't tell you what it means to me to have someone let me know that they were thinking of me.
Makes my load SO much lighter.
So--go ahead--encourage someone today!!
Then tell me about it in the comments. : )
Thankyou a good reminder. It's so easy to look on the outside and think "they're ok" but it never hurts to ask :)
