Sometimes the biggest win isn’t a milestone. It’s just making it through. If you made it through something today, big or small, I’m proud of you. Say it out loud if you need to. 💙
When I picked my son up from school, the first thing I told him was, hey, you made it. How often do we forget to say that to ourselves now? And I was proud of him for making it through his day. Now we'll figure out what the next milestone is. But today's win.
When I picked my son up from school today, the first thing I told him was, hey, you made it. And then he laughed and I laughed. And then he looked at me and he said, no, you made it. You made it. And you know what? That was most of the conversation our way home. And it got me thinking. How often do we forget to say that to ourselves now? Maybe you just made it through the day. Maybe it made it through the week. Maybe you only made it through lunch. But you know what? You did that you made it. And I was proud of him for making it through his day, remembering his stuff and showing up.
And now we'll figure out what the next milestone is. But today's win. We made it. And if you need someone to tell you that I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, too for making it.
