The holiday season is in full swing, and while it’s my favorite time of year, it can also be the most stressful. Ok, who am I kidding, I’m not telling you something you don’t already know. Before all the hustle and bustle turns me into a woman that looks like she stuck her finger into a light socket, I decided we should take action. During Thanksgiving, I know you’ve seen on Facebook and other social networking sites sharing posts about the people and things we are thankful for during the season. But I say, let’s not forget to salute ourselves this holiday season. Let’s face it, ladies, no matter how loving or giving your partner is, you make or break the holidays. If I left it up to my hubby, Christmas would consist of football, beer, wings and maybe a string of lights around the front door. I could list all the jobs we fulfill, but I’m getting tired and stressed just thinking about it. So, I say let’s take a few minutes to remember and say, “thankful I’m a woman.” Let’s take this time to appreciate all the beauty we bring to our family and friends. Let’s remember the greatest gift we can give our loved ones; ourselves. What makes you beautiful in their eyes? Is it your sense of humor, spontaneity, intelligence, kindness or do you make a mean lasagna? I love being a woman, and more importantly, I love the special something we bring to the table. No pun intended. For the next two weeks on my Facebook page, I’ll be posting reasons why #ThankfulI’mAWoman. I hope you’ll join me and have some fun. But more importantly, I hope this gives you the opportunity to remember what makes you special this holiday season.
