Holiday Time

 Hi Everyone
Happy Friday
  Life starts to get really busy now
 during the holiday season
I always try to remember to carve out a little time for myself
to rejuvenate to reflect and to recharge
to slow down and enjoy the journey
 A few minutes to sip a cup of tea or
visit with a friend, take a walk
to laugh, to watch a movie with family

As Moms we often are so selfless 
~superwomen~
  We think about taking care of everyone else our Husbands, children, animals
Grandparents extended family, friends, Teachers and the list can go on and on
as well as  taking care of every thing else 
decorating the house, the food, the Christmas cards the presents !!
before we even think of our own needs
but I remember what
I learned as a flight attendant
"It is important to put your mask on first than assist your child and others with an additional mask"
Great reminder to be good to ourselves too


Take a Mom time out ,with no guilt, be good to you this holiday season too
so you can be a refreshed, revived and renewed
~superwomen~


Are you ready for Thanksgiving
I call this time the calm before the storm!
especially in our kitchen
romantic saying for today
"With one look at you , you became my eternity"

  1. Pam,
    You are so right. We do tend to put ourselves last and forget that we need nourished and pampered too.

  4. Yes, we share our holidays with our families and friends, but we need our own time too. With a little luck, I'll sneak some in.
