I start my day in prayer. Think about all of the blessing you have and thank God for those things in your life. At the end of the day, thank Him and praise him for all of the blessings he bestowed on you today. The more gratitude you put out into the world the more you will get back.

Sometimes I am on social media and see all of these happy families and wonder if my family lives up to the standard, but there is no standard and social media is a highlight reel. Just be present with your kids. Talk to them. Laugh with them. Enjoy them. They are only this big for a moment. Show up for their events big and small. Get interested in the things they like and play with them.

My family has a movie night on Friday. Remember how great TGIF was in the 90s? It has a similar feeling. We borrow a movie from the library or stream one. I make popcorn on the stove and we cozy up on the couch. It is a great way to end a busy week, but also a fun way to connect.

It doesn’t have to be some grand gesture with your kiddos. Be the mom you wanted to have and you are already there!
