Turning Morning Interruptions into Opportunities

Perfectly imperfect early morning moment captured… and all it’s beauty that it brings to our heart.

Sage has been waking up extra early and “interrupting” my planned quiet, early morning work times.

There was an internal battle for a couple days: Including self- talk to get my mind and energy back on track…

Started something like this…

Argh! There went my productive time!

Why?

Now she’s going to be cranky and tired and refuse to nap all day!

What’s causing this?

I’ll never get caught up today!

Make sure you’re quiet so I can keep working…

And all the frustration, distraction and negative feelings creating mayhem with my morning!

Which in turn drags the day down.

Then I shifted…

Let go of the negative thoughts and energy and gave her a hug when she woke up and came into where I was working.

Invited her to either lay with me quietly while I finished, or go make her breakfast and play with the dogs.

And then I returned to working calmly, and more focused.

Last night she took a pillow and read and journaled with the dogs, on her own.

She said she was going to have a power hour night and morning like I do and journal and read!

My heart was bursting. And I was humbled at the same time.

This morning, as promised, she showed up with her journal and book to work with me.

Mamas… who else knows this feeling? Some days are a battle, and some days you experience the fruits.

Remember the blessing you give to someone else is most often in time and attention.
