Be a Better Mom, One Small Moment at a Time
GREAT moms know this secret: it’s the small moments that matter most. A few seconds of being intentional will quickly add up to make your kids feel valued and loved in your home.
I know your day is full and your to do list is long. But I also know this. Being a better mom isn’t rocket science. You can start with just 5 seconds of being intentional with your attention and affection. It’s as simple as that!
It’s time to turn your day around, mama!
- Give an Eskimo kiss
- Start a tickle fight
- Say “You’re so kind.”
- Say “I like the way you did that.”
- Race the grocery cart down an empty aisle
- Make up a secret handshake
- Gaze at the moon before you enter the house at night
- Take a deep breath and count to five together
- Ask “What are you thankful for today?”
- Dance in the car at a stoplight
