Wait, make time for me?

I had a coaching call with Parenting On Track this week and I was concerned that my career, finances and day to day grind were spilling over into my relationship with my kids. WHY? Because I was falling into old habits more often than not.

Old habit number one: "making a mountain out of a mole hill" as my mother used to put it.

Old habit number two: yelling

During my coaching call we figured out that I have not taken enough time for myself. Duh! Just thinking about it makes me smile. Then I pulled out my "Supa Mom" cape and we all sang the Supa Mom Song. Humor and complete silliness also works to break up the moment.

In chapter 7 of the workbook, Vicki, creator of Parenting On Track discusses "The Art of Encouragement". Reviewing this chapter this week for me means I make time for me.
