K - Boise, Idaho * I Want To Be A More Positive Wife And Mother
Sunny,
First of all thank you
for all the affirmations
I have received so far.
I can’t wait to turn on my computer
in the morning just to see
what the affirmation is today.
A little about myself,
I am a mother of 6,
2 boys and 4 girls.
They range in age from 17 to 9.
I am a stay at home mom,
the thing I like most about it
is being able to be here for our children.
I love to be here when they get home from school
just to talk about their day.
I also coach my 11 year old daughters soccer team,
and am a part time taxi driver (for the kids).
I like to workout and take some time for myself
while the kids are at school.
I think the thing I have been having
the most problems with this last year
is having a positive attitude.
I want to be a more positive wife and mother.
Sometimes having 4 teenagers is a challenge
and sometimes I feel like all of my time
is spent on everyone else
and I get lost in the shuffle.
Don’t get me wrong,
I really love what I do
and the opportunity that I have
to be able to stay home.
I just need a little reminder
that I am a person not just a mom or wife.
I live in Idaho
where it is very cold this time of year.
I love Hawaii and have been there once
and would like to return someday.
Thanks again for the affirmations!
~K
Additional Comment -- From Sunny :)
Hi K!
Thank You for writing.
Being a stay at home wife and mother
is both a privilege and a challenge, isn't it?
The very fact that you're aware
and desirous of having a positive attitude
is "more than half the battle."
The series of free affirmations you're receiving
by e-mail are on the theme of "I'm A High Achiever"
You might want to think about:
"What does it mean FOR ME to be a high achiever
as a stay at home wife and mother?"
How could it include time and space for ME?
How can I develop my own positive attitude
while also instilling a positive attitude in my children?
What could I read to support this?
What is my ideal day like?
What does it include?
What does it exclude?
How can I be extra kind to myself TODAY?
Only you can answer these questions for yourself.
AND it's YOUR answers that really matter.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
Take small steps and enjoy the journey.
Much Love and Many Good Thoughts To You, K!
