Hello, my friend!
I hope you’re doing well! Today, my youngest is six months old. He’s not quite crawling yet, but boy, can he roll wherever his heart desires! He also just got his very first tooth this week. I cannot believe how swiftly time has flown. Well, at least it flies after the “newborn fog” has lifted; those first few weeks are rough!
In this week’s episode of The Way to Grow Mom Show, I discuss one aspect of motherhood that I, quite honestly, don’t enjoy one bit: pumping breast milk (I’m doing it right now, as a matter of fact). If you, or a mama you know, are interested in the topic of pumping, particularly pumping exclusively, check the episode out HERE!
Okay, diving into this week’s Top 4… Hope you enjoy it! And as always, please feel free to email me any time at diana.tyler86@gmail.com.
MOTIVATING MAKE-BELIEVE
“If you’re 37, instead of regretting that you can’t wake up age 18 again, pretend to yourself that you’re 90 and you’ve woken up age 37 again, and that you get to magically, wonderfully have the next 50 years again.” – Unknown
JUST LET THEM…
“Reminder: If someone is acting like an idiot, you can just move on and let them be wrong. You do not have a personal obligation to correct people who are committed to being stupid. Sure, sometimes you need to attempt to get on the same page, but usually you can simply reclaim your time and move on to more productive ventures.” – James Clear
NEVER GIVE UP
“When you get into a tight place, and everything goes against you till it seems as if you couldn’t hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that’s just the place and time that the tide’ll turn.” – Harriet Beecher Stowe
3 MORNING COMMITMENTS
(I don’t know the source, so if you do, please let me know!):
“These three morning commitments have served me really well:
Scripture before screens.
Mediation before media.
Prayer before posts.”
