I did this one for a Contest over at Swirlydoos.... we had to a LO about why we love ourselves.... I used the Nov Swirlydoo Kit and a sketch by Liz Qualman.... and this is the end result.

The journeling is:
Everyday - I make mistakes,
Everyday - There are moments I wish I could ‘do over’
Everyday - I have to remind myself that no one is perfect,
So, Each Day....
I Try - to do better and not repeat past mistakes,
I Try - give my best to those I love,
I Try - to appreciate others and tell them so,
I Try - to show my boys how much I love them
I Try - to choose to be happy,
I Try - to listen as well as speak
I Try - to smile with my eyes
I Try - to have hold onto my temper
I Try - to have patience with others
I Try - to think of others ahead of myself
But, sometimes...
The stress can build, my patience slips, my temper threatens....
Take a deep breath....
Close my eyes....
Call to mind the feeling I get when....
My husband holds me tight...
The feel of a little hand holding mine....
The sound of my boys laughing together....
Their smiles large, their eyes bright....
Watching my older son helping my younger one....
Everyday....
I try to stop and revel in those moments....
Because appreciating the good times, gets me through the bad times....
My love for them, their love for me....
That is my strength.

TFL.
