You all who read my blog fairly regular, know that from time to time I stray from my love of makeup and post on my love for my family. Both make me feel good about myself, so why not blog about them both when the mood strikes me, right?! So today I decided to take a break from the normal everyday routine, (something I need to do every now and then to clear my head and take a breather) and I took all 3 of my kids to the park.
To see my kids just run around and laughing like crazy people on a wide open park is so refreshing. I wasn’t nagging them to “eat their lunch” or “pick up your toys” or “be nice to your brother/sister,” and that felt good. Kids need to run off steam and I needed the breath of fresh air. It was a win win for us all.
Since I live in the South where the bitter cold doesn’t really hit us until January/February, I am aware this is a luxury I should appreciate. I’m sure playing in the park is not an activity most people up north do in the month of December! Or at least they have to be super bundled up to do it!
Today was a day where my family made me feel more beautiful than any expensive lip gloss. A day in the park was just what I needed to recharge my mommy batteries.
How do you recharge when life gets hectic during the holidays??
