Habits of Happy Mothers

I am listening to the audio book The 10 Habits of Happy Mothers by Meg Meeker. This book will honestly change the way you look at yourself as a mother. The first habit she discusses is that we need to understand our value as a mother. It is hard to see that we are valuable sometimes, there is always too much to do, kids misbehaving, etc… It is easy to realize when are kids are small that they need us, to care for their basic needs, but it is hard to grasp just how precious we are as mothers. Our children’s world can be changed just by the mood we are in on a given day. We are loved by our kids, even when we might yell at them when they didn’t do anything to deserve it, they still love their mommies. We are more valuable than we realize. Feel good about who you are as a mother and feel good about the job you are doing.
