Bestie

I love having a Bestie. It has been a while since I have had a Bestie, a Best Friend.

Bestie defined as “a best friend or close friend. An example of a bestie is the person with whom you spend lots of time”.

I have many close friends who I love spending time with, who know me, with whom I am happy to share my stories. And I want to listen to their stories. They are important to me.

And then there is my Bestie, my friend who I talk to each day, who I know is on my team.

Of course my hubby is my Best Friend too, the one that is home to me.

And my Bestie is a blessing too. I love our chats. I love hanging out with our children. I love hanging out with our families. I love hanging out just the two of us. These chats, these times bring me Joy. They make my day.

Having a Bestie brings me Joy. Knowing I have a Bestie brings me Joy.

I also want my daughter to have a Bestie. Lately, the last week or two she had been spending time with one of her friends becoming closer and it is special to her, it brings her Joy. I want my daughter to have a Bestie that she can rely on, where they can rely on each other. Now when my daughter comes home from school she is happy. She is happy because she has found a Bestie. Maybe just a Bestie for now, yet a Bestie for the day that brings her happiness and fills her with Joy.

I Choose Joy

Today is Mother’s Day 2020 - I love being a Mum and I love celebrating special occasions with my beautiful family - I am blessed.

As a Mum there is so much to do and so much to get done. As a Mum I am on a Mission to be the best Mum I can be - this is what is most important to me. I do love the word Mission, defined as “an important goal or purpose that is accompanied by strong conviction”.

Today I am setting a simple Mission for the year ahead - to be Joyful or Joy Filled.

I love the word Joyful, defined as “experiencing, causing or showing Joy”. I also love the idea of Joy Filled - where the word Fill means “to make, to become full, to use empty space”, and Joy means “delight, pleasure, happiness” and to be filled with Joy means “to be extremely happy, content, to be delighted”.

I love when you feel Joy - it is felt in the heart - it lights you up and warms your heart and creates an imprint in our memory.

I will be actively choosing and pursuing Joy, and deliberating creating Joy to colour our days and nights.

I am making a commitment to write 100 posts over the next one year, two per week, as an opportunity to record my thoughts, insights, discoveries. This is my journey and I write these posts to be the best Mum I can be - it is not intended to give advice - it is my brave process and adventure, and this Blog is about keeping me accountable too.

I am actively going to pursue Joy Starters and be conscious of, and proactive with, the Joy Robbers. And I want to teach my children the importance of Joy too. I really want my children to be happy and Joyful, where each night as we go to sleep we are at peace.

I am hoping that when I reach Mother’s Day 2021, I will look back on the year and really feel that it was Joyful, and that in this process I learn new tips and tricks for my life.
