It’s time to make a mom brag list and celebrate your wins! How often do you look back at all that you have done and give yourself a pat on the back?
It’s so much easier to do that for our kids huh? Way to go Johnny! You scored a goal! Or, Way to go Sarah, you did an amazing job in the school play! Or better yet, Way to go Tommy, you cleaned your room!
I know I’m more inclined to look back and focus on all that I have not done. This year, I’m going to do just the opposite. I’m going to make a list of all the things I’ve accomplished despite how much opposition I faced, and I’m going to be proud of where I’m at, even if it’s not where I want to be!
And, I want you to do the same!

Before I Dive In..
Make a Mom Brag List
Do you celebrate your wins? Will you make a Mom Brag List? You should! Are you more inclined to look forward with excitement and keep going? Or are you the type that beats yourself up for all the goals you did not meet? This is an important distinction to determine.
Katrina, which one are you? I’m so glad you asked. I’m somewhere in the middle. I have a strong will to keep going despite how hard it is, but I also tend to beat myself up for all that I have not done instead of being proud of all that I have accomplished.
Which is so silly.

Mom, I challenge you to be proud of your accomplishments – no matter how big or small they may seem to you! As big as getting a new job or as small as the fact that you took a shower today. I mean it! I know this may sound crazy, but we need to take the time to celebrate everyday and develop a heart of gratitude and pride!

Being a Mom Is Hard
Being a mom is so hard. Which I know you understand. I have my days when things are great and I feel like a Mom Rock Star – but I also have many more days when being a mom is so hard I want to cry.
WISH PLANNING A PARTY WAS A PIECE OF CAKE?
Some days are a roller coaster, and just when I think I have it together, my 8 year old decides he doesn’t like his mashed potatoes. He can be really honest too – and 8 year old honesty hurts.
Trust me, I understand how mom life can be rough.
Brag On Yourself
Because mom days can be so brutal, all the more reason to celebrate the wins! It’s time for you to brag on yourself! You are an amazing mom, you can do amazing things, and I’m so proud of you!
Share with me and the whole Frugal Fun Mom Community just how awesome you are! Lay it out there! I can’t wait to hear it! You deserve some praise and I’ll be the first to tell you, you are a GREAT mom!
You are a GREAT mom!!! Share on XIn the spirit of bragging, I’ll start – ok? Keep in mind, your brag list does not have to be only mom things, because, as we all know, moms have many facets. I’m not just a mom, I’m also a runner, business owner, blogger, etc.
