Day 2 and this one is much harder for me to write about.
Day 2 prompt (courtesy of @chookoloonks): Today, I’d love if you’d grab your journal and make a list of things that you’re really good at.
I love that Karen calls them Gifts and Superpowers. At first I laughed a bit then I remember how what I can do sometimes impacts people (namely my children) in significant and important ways. But it’s not in my nature to think about the things I do well. Too often we are focused on the things we don’t do well.
So, what do I do well?
I can…
- make an amazing cheesecake and from scratch pie crust.
- make really great homemade toffee (thanks to Rebecca’s mom).
- fix a boo-boo with a band-aid and a kiss.
- put my kids to be in record time.
- read a book really fast.
- think outside of the box.
- cook.
- take pretty awesome photos.
- pick out a good bottle of wine.
I am also a great listener and friend.
While at first glance, it doesn’t seem like much, I have to say I have some gifts to share. While this list isn’t inclusive of everything, it is a good reminder of the little things that I have to offer that so often get overlooked.
