Laugh Loudly...

For those of you that have never visited my blog.. Welcome! :) I have started reading the book "The Power of a Positive Mom" by Karol Ladd, and am posting about my reading and how her tips to become a more positive mom effect my life. So if you are wanting to have a weekly devotional or if you are just needing a bout of inspiration, a laugh, and maybe even sometimes a good cry please read. This is definately a 'mommy' blog. I will also post recipes, mom tips that I come across and other things! Please post any comments or questions you have! This is a page for mom's to give their thoughts, advice, and hopefully gain insight, and not just from me!

Follow Up

Well it has been much more than a week since my last post! Life got busy as usual! But hopefully many of yall took up the challenge and did a week of 'smiling more! If you did I hope that you got some positive feedback or noticed how it gave you or somebody around you a better attitude and joyful feeling during the day. Since I am just going to do this post as a follow up I will tell you what I call my shining moment of smiling week. -- I had gone to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription and unfortunately I had to go inside the store instead of going through the drive-thru. Of course there were a couple of people in front of me, who they were I have no idea. But anyways!.. One of the ladies was being rather rude to the pharmacist, and although she had a reason to be a little upset, it was nothing that the pharmacist could control or change. I felt really bad because the pharmacists was trying to be very polite, but it was obvious she was ready for that lady to take her medicine and go, and that it was not the first incident like that that had happened during the day. So as soon as I got up to the counter I smiled as big as I could (without looking like a maniac lol) and at first she looked taken- a -back and then she smiled back and looked relieved. And that is my story of success for the week. Not exactly heroic or anything, but I felt rewarded to have hopefully made her day better. I sincerely hope that you were able to visually see if your smiling helped someone you came into contact with, but sometimes we dont always get to. Keep it up! You eventually will if you havnt yet! I will be posting a much more interesting post in the next few days lol but until then, Orevwa!

Smiling always gets you farther faster than frowning ever will.

  1. Love the post!! I found another cool smiling proverb.

    A kind man benefits himself, but a cruel man brings trouble to himself. Proverbs 11:17
