My wonderfully talented blogger friend Tracy posted a link-up to Elena at Ciao Mom…Elena is challenging all of us to write about the things we do like about ourselves.  It is so easy to list off the negative things, isn’t it??  I know I could use a little positive self-talk today.  So, here goes: What I Like about Me (in no particular order): 1.  I love my hair.  Especially after getting my highlights fixed.  Ohmygoodness, that first day, I swear I was looking in the mirror ALL.DAY.LONG.  It’s the perfect length right now for putting up and wearing down.  2.  I love that after all my hard work I’m starting to see some great muscle tone in my arms.  It makes me feel strong! 3.  I love my skin.  I struggled with acne half my life – but something happened after I had kids.  Ha, a good thing – my skin cleared up and it has really never looked better.  4.  I love that I clean up really well.  I spend so much time in yoga pants and baseball caps – admittedly, it’s just easier and I’m all about comfort – but I don’t know if if was all those years of collecting makeup instead of kid’s clothes or just the love of all things girly, but I enjoy a good “getting ready to go out” process.  5.  I think that I have pretty great style (ignore the words yoga/pants/baseball/cap). 6.  I think I’m pretty funny.  And I tell a great story.  Especially after a glass of wine or two. 7.  I’m fiercely loyal. 8.  I’m a great gift giver.  I LOVE giving gifts.  It is truly one of my most favorite things to do, ever. 9.  After all the crazy squats I’ve done over the past 4 months – I am proud to say that my quads are rock solid!!  Woot!! 10.  I’m a great Mom.  There.  I feel better already!
