Doing my part to make the world a better place—whether it be by a total epiphany or a simple smile—I've found a hobby in leaving simple Post-it notes. On these Post-its are written words of kindess, love, and encouragement, in hopes that it may bring a little light to whoever may find it. Since this objective took flight, I've additionally enjoyed simply sharing daily occurances that make life beautiful. Do take what you can from my silly, messy, and scatterbrained story. If nothing else, may it encourage you to embrace your own.

No Excuses!

Hey-o!

Blah... Blogging has been really slow lately, huh? I'm super excited to finish up the winter sports season and move into spring, that's for sure! It'll be so nice to have more time, thus hopefully more notes/posts.

But for the time being, one note every once in a while is one note every once in a while. Better delayed than never!

This pink, little note went up today in the girls' bathroom! I really like that quote--it's convicting! No excuses, right?Notice: That is NOT my normal handwriting. I must disguise it to draw as little attention to myself as possible... Maybe I should invent a pseudonym.

Anyway, enjoy! Hope you had a lovely Monday. The worst part is over. :-)

Been Awhile

Hellooo to you!

Raise your hand if you haven't blogged in an outrageously long time...

Yes, don't worry, my hand is raised. Sorry about my lack of posting, I'm going to try to be better about it over the next couple weeks. We'll see!

I DO have a cute "note" to share with you, though.

Back story: My younger sister (9 yrs.) and I were sitting in church last Sunday. Picture a 17-year-old already at her whits end about her obnoxious siblings, trying to follow a sermon that is not holding interest in her head. That was me in the moment. My sister leaned over and tapped me on the shoulder. Turning to her with probably one of the most intimidating scowls EVER, she asked me to write someone "nice about God" on the back of her bulletin. I didn't even know what that meant, but she went on to tell me that I should just write "you know, something good about God... Like something you would keep in your car." (Bahaha! That last part made me laugh.) So... I did. I wrote "God can't love you more, and He won't love you less." Evidently, she didn't understand it at first because she proceeded to say, "That's mean!" at first. Then I told her to re-read it and she smiled as she (hopefully!) understood the meaning. Anyway, at this point, I still didn't know why she had me write it.

And then--drum roll, please--she stuck the bulletin in a pew pad (The registry booklet in every isle that people are suppose to write their names when they attend church) She looked at me with the biggest grin on her face. Clearly, I was about as happy as a Hallmark card around the holidays! She's catching on. ;-)


Looks like the Post-it Effect might just ripple right on through the family.

Hopefully I'll be back soon, with some more notes. Until then, stay classy!
