Let's Sweat the Small Stuff
Posted by Danielle Bean in Family on Thursday, April 22, 2010 7:01 AM
It’s important for moms to recognize that all the small successes in our days can add up to one big triumph. So on Thursday of each week, we do exactly that.
To participate, just write up a list of 3 of your recent Small Successes and post it on your blog along with the Small Successes button (go here to get the code). You are not required to use the button, but please do link back to the main post here. Then you can add your blog here using the Mr. Linky form (please link to the individual blog post, not the home page of your blog).
If you don’t have a blog, you can share your Small Successes in the comments.
To get us started, here are my small successes for this week:
1. I went through my closet and clothes drawers over the weekend and in less than 15 minutes filled a large bag with clothing to give away. I will not miss any of it. Love the space!
2. I packed up all the kids’ winter things—only about 12,000 items including boots, hats, gloves, snow pants, winter coats, and scarves—and brought them to the attic. No leaving bags and bins hanging around for days—straight to the attic!
3. My sons got an XBox this week and I have not yet threatened to take it away. That must mean someone is exercising control around here.
Now it’s your turn! Please share all the small but significant ways you’ve done the right thing this week.
