Making It Count

Recently I was asked by the sensational Mama Hen of Mama’s Little Chick to be a feature blogger on her new and adorable network site appropriately named Mama’s Little Nestwork. I was thrilled, honored and unable to pen a post – yikes! Eventually I came up with the following. Thanks Mama Hen! If you haven't joined her network I highly encourage you to do so. 


When I started my first big girl job in my early 20’s I authored a few sayings to get me through the tough days. My favorite was, “What you do counts, so make sure it’s worth being accounted for.” While some may critique the grammar, it makes a point. We all affect each other in some way albeit positive or negative.

I find so many people don’t accept that what they say or do really matters, but of course it does. As parents we work to create smart and loving children – that counts. We want to be around when our children have children so we need to be healthy – it counts. We want to be good spouses, partners, daughters, sisters and friends/bloggy friends – it all counts.

So if you are in a funk, try to remember your efforts and energy matter to everyone around you. If we give our best or at the very least are conscientious of what we put out there, then we get some pretty good stuff in return.

Thank you for stopping by, you have made my day.

How do you make it count?
