You Are Worthy : You Are Enough : Brené Brown DVD Giveaway

Your post reminds me that I need to slow down and truly enjoy more of those ordinary moments. One of my favorites is snuggling with my dog, Lucy. Her joy and energy are an inspiration to everyone in the house.

When I get home from work and my husband and dogs come out to the car to greet me. It's good to be home.

My favorite ordinary moment is a "real" moment... when I leave work each day. While I like my job, leaving each day reminds me that there is more to life than WORK! Thank heavens for that!

I love the moment when my kids get off the school bus. Seeing them run in the house and babbling about the days events just is so ordinary and wonderful all at the same time. :-) peace...

When I take time to relax and hear what is going on around me. Like last night - listening to the rain, or this morning - listening to the birds. It is very calming.

mine is when all 3 of my kiddos pile into our bed on Saturday and Sunday mornings. There is nothing like waking up to 3 smiling faces that are so excited to see their MOMMA! I struggle with this comparing myself to others, always wanting more. Not material things either. Just be a "better" parent, be that skinny lady sipping her coffee at the shop, etc. It's something I've been wanting to tackl! LOVE MYSELF and enjoy who I am. What I bring to this world and to my children. :-)

Ordinary moments I love: working with my kids on doing their chores and teaching them how to take responsibility and do a good job.

My favorite moment(s) is watching my children sleep. I can only imagine what is swimming around in their brains. What are they dreaming about? Will they go to the beach? Will the be taken on a roller coaster ride? It is so peaceful and amazing to watch them and know that I created that human. WOW! Thank you God for that gift!

Brene's book sounds like just what I need right now.
I love watching our cats chase the laser light around.
I with I had that much energy!

One night cooking - with an 18 year old and the 21 year old twins packed into the kitchen - the laughter and sharing - what a perfectly 'ordinary' moment that I never want to forget.

I love lying on my daughter's bed each night and talking with her before she falls asleep. She's almost 11 now and we've been doing this pretty much her whole life. Sometimes we get laughing and giggling so much that we cry! Sometimes we just gently talk before she falls asleep (or I fall asleep!). I always spent time with my kids before they fell asleep, but after 4 boys there is something magical about this time with my daughter.

I hate it when I make typos!

I love hanging out with my roommate and working on crafts or just watching TV together even.

Love the focus on ordinary, and the Worthiness!!

My favorite ordinary moments include moments when I catch my kids playing together. It's truly magic.

I really liked the blog post - really hit home!
Thourghout the day there are certain moments that seem to calm me and I feel content. My grown son saying I love you as he goes to study, my cat perching on the arm of my chair, turning her head to look lovingly into my eyes, my husband's playful smile from across the room, ahh those hugs I feel and the saying from a movie - "my cup runneth over".
That being said I am haunted by the "if only's" - if only I would get this job - if only I lost weight - if only I was younger or prettier. Still I battle the worthiness aspect! I have hope!

My favorite every day moment is when we sit down as a family each night at dinner. We have a tradition where we go around the table, youngest to oldest, and report our "high" and "low" for the day. We have such great conversations sparked from this simple activity - and, like at our table last night - it can spark some sillyness and laughs too! Just real, home-grown, simple time spent well together as a family.

This sounds EXACTLY like what I need. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I love when I walk outside and hear the birds singing. My daughter at college sent me a text one morning that she opened her window just to enjoy the sound of the birds.

Ooops forgot to post an oridnary moment..... cuddling on the couch with my 10 year old as we read a book together.

When I am spending time with my friend and we don't need to say anything but look into each other's eyes to know what the other is thinking or feeling and then a moment later smiling, laughing, comforting, or crying. In a way, not so ordinary (as in routine or special) a moment, but to an observer, it would be not much more than two friends together.

My favorite ordinary moments are when we sit as a family at the dinner table and share our day, i recieve the gift of getting to know each member of my family. The other favorite ordinary moment i love, is when im reading in my room on my bed and my children will join me to read. :)

My favourite ordinary moment is any time all of us are at together. It's getting harder and harder as the kids become adults. I so miss the family dinners...

Little Man and I are hanging out and he asks me, "Mom, we're best friends, right?".
It doesn't get any better than that. :)

I loved her post and am excited to think about it more.
