The magic is in the moments: Are you overlooking the best parts of your day?

By Jessica Cleary, Psychologist

​"Your normal may be their magic."

It's all about perspective mamas! This video is sure to pull at your heart strings as you watch vlogger Esther Anderson's moving piece of her day from the perspective of both herself and then her young daughter.

After watching, you can't help but reflect on the way you sum up your own days. Do you hold on to the magical moments and celebrate them? Or do the frustrations leave a more lasting impression?
​
Let this be today's challenge: Notice and hold on to the magic. Breathe in the giggles and the sillyness, the cuddles and the kisses. Breathe out the tantrums and tears, the defiance and backchat.

See if it makes a difference on the way you feel. There's a good chance it will!
