Better Mom Day 23: Be Happy

If you’re new to the 31 day series, over 1200 bloggers have chosen a theme they want to write about every day in October ranging from food or fashion to faith or fabric.  See the whole list at The Nester.  I decided to focus on trying to be a better mom, and you can see my first post here.

Day 23: Be Happy


Today’s goal was simply to be happy.  If anyone were to ask me if I’m happy, I would respond with a convincing yes.  And it’s true.  But I realize that I don’t always act happy–and isn’t happiness really in the way we act anyway?  I feel better when I’m acting happy, and I’m sure my kids would say they’d rather be around me when I’m happy.  I want them to know that I love being their mom…not that I think it’s a drag.  I would love for my girls to grow up with the desire to be moms, and for my son to want to be a dad (you know…when they’re old and married)  I won’t be very convincing if I begrudgingly make my way through every day 🙂  Hopefully I was convincing today–and can keep it up!
