This is so important, Sheryl Gould ! But often overlooked when we get caught up in the things we "need" to do. Great reminder! Going to have to pull some of my jokes out of retirement the next time I see my kids. Knock! Knock! :-)
Sheryl Gould
Thank you Donna John . I totally agree! Or Mad Libs! Those are so fun.

I love the idea to start dancing when you're stressed. I'm going to try that, Sheryl Gould , thanks!

Elisa All Schmitz 30Seconds - Maybe we should do that on the show on Thursday - ha ha.
Having a sense of humor really helps me!
Egan Patricia
Agree. I put music on when the children start whining (depending on why) and get up and start dancing and cleaning until they forget why and join in. I just need to remember to do this more often.
Sheryl Gould
Hi Egan Patricia - I LOVE that you do that. Thank you for commenting! It makes a huge difference when we are playful and use humor versus being negative or critical. :)
Elisa Schmitz
This is awesome, Sheryl Gould . We all need to embrace our playful selves every day! Thanks for the inspiration. xoxo
