Take a minute to think about your favorite
thing(s). Imagine what it is like to
enjoy a treat without sharing, your favorite book, taking time for a special
beauty trick, or putting on your comfy clothes.
Just imagining it makes you feel better doesn't it. It gives you warm fuzzies
and great memories.
We all need these moments and things to helps us
recharge, remember who we are, who we were, and focus on the best things and
events in our lives. We spend so much
time making sure other people (big and small) are happy that we tend to forget
about ourselves. Sometimes it is the smallest things that bring us back from the
edge of craziness. It does not have to
be a day at the spa, a personal vacation
or a new wardrobe to make us feel special. We are special and we deserve moments
to treat ourselves to something even if it seems small to someone else. We know that the smallest thing can bring the
biggest joy, just look at our children.
Recently, I was lucky enough to hear about other
mothers favorite things and the best part they were all under $5.00. Let me just tell you, you are worth more than
that, but it is an easy amount to fit into our budgets. The things ranged from treats just for us,
cupcakes/cakes to share, beauty trick for soft hands, clean hands, books, card
games, healthy easy treats for kids, stain
removers, photo albums, and comfy cozy clothing.
So what is your favorite thing(s)? Is it is budget friendly?
Do you think a friend of yours would enjoy it?
Take some time to find your favorite thing, write a
note to share why it is your it is special or makes you feel special then give
it to a friend. There is no need to wait
for a special occasion to celebrate your friendship. This is a chance to share your
joy with someone else and a chance to show someone that they are special and deserve to take a
moment to enjoy their favorite thing.
