Welcome to Week 13 of "What I Love About Me!" hosted by Twins Plus One, Three Times the Fun and Twingle Mommy!
Here's how it works -
Write a post about what you love about yourself this week and then add it to the linky list below. This is intended to be a time and place for each of us to stop criticizing ourselves for a few minutes and actually remind ourselves of the characteristics we are proud to own. So go ahead, look in the mirror, and see yourself through your loved one's eyes. Notice the beauty first. Here's your place to shine!
A few simple guidelines -
- Please follow the two hostesses. If you are a new follower, please comment so we can follow you too! :)
- We'd love it if you posted the button and the linky list, but it is not mandatory. The button code is on my left sidebar.
- Feel free to link to your homepage or your specific "What I Love About Me!" post. We want this to be a fun, relaxing hop so we'll accept all links as long as they are family-friendly. Thanks!
- The linky will be open all week so feel free to link-up on your own time!
What I Love About Me this week: I know when it's time to take a break (usually).
No, I didn't fall off the face of the earth. I just knew I needed a little time out - time disconnected from the computer and from work. I felt like I had been working non-stop since I got the keys to my new classroom on August 8th. Tomorrow is the big first day of school for most students in our district. I, however, have screening assessments to do all next week. Pre-K students will begin right after Labor Day. Regardless, tomorrow is still an important day and I need to be well-rested and ready for it.
So I took the weekend to focus on my family and trying to rest. We spent quality time together and celebrated with a nice family dinner this evening. I chose to make a holiday-style ham dinner because comfort food is...uh...well...comforting. :)
What do you love about yourself this week?
