Five Minute Friday: Catch

Wow, three posts in one day.  If you're a follower, hope you don't get sick of me.  If you are a new visitor...welcome.  Stay a while, have a look around.  And let me know you visited with a comment below--I will be sure to return the favor!

This week's Five Minute Friday prompt was, I have to admit, a tough one.  I almost wasn't going to do it this week because I couldn't think of how to write about it.  But, that is why I enjoy the Five Minute Friday, because it is a challenge in writing. Write what you feel and are thinking for five minutes.  No editing, nada.  So here we go... {and pictures were added after the five minutes. just sayin'}

Five Minute Friday Prompt:  Catch

#   #   #

Catch.  Catching the fever.  That is what I am trying to do.  Not that bad fever...the flu or cold fever. No, the moving in the right direction fever.

J#3 = caught  {wink}

I spend so much time talking about what I want to be.  Spend time even writing about 31 days to being a better mama.  Instead of talking about it, I want to catch the fever, and just go with it.  Just be that better mama.

Just be that healthier mama.  The one that creates natural meals and foods for her family.  The one that makes exercise a part of every day, so her children grow up with that as part of their everyday life.  The wife that is the wife she has always dreamt of being.

Instead of just thinking, talking about it.  Catch it.  Catch the fever.   Move on, stop thinking.  Do it.

Be there for them all the time.  I sound like a broken record.  Seems like I am saying that so much.  Better just start doing it.  Then maybe I won't have to write about it so often?

Moving towards the future.  Not living in the past.  Enjoying the present day.  Living in the moment.  Intending to live each day as if it is was the most important day of my life.

Not wishing it was next week, or next month...but being in the moment.  Doing the best I can do right now for my husband, my children, myself.  

Who is with me?  Can this be done?  Stop talking about what I want to change, and just do it?  I think it can.

I am going to catch the fever.  The fever to live.   The fever to love.  How about you?  Ready?  Catch!

P.S.  I really, really need to start having my husband takes pictures now and then.  Tried to find photos of me...slim to none.
