I'm sayin....

My sweet benjamin starts almost every sentence with "I'm sayin" and it cracks me up. I got the joy of waking up to he and big big playing and he came in for his morning nursing. So cute as he says "I'm sayin, nana."

Then it occurred to me, when as adults did we stop vocalizing what we want (or need) and feel the need to stifle these and leave them unsaid?!

We are oft very happy to say what we don't want, don't like or won't tolerate. I wonder if it would be more productive to just be direct and honest about what we want or need from those around us.

So, here it goes! If I love you, care for me in return! Say what you mean and stick to it. Laugh with me, cry with me, show me what's in those beautiful souls out there. 

Don't hide your battle, for there's no shame in the struggle. It shows you are passionate about something. 

Fascinating lesson from my wild boy simply asking for what he wanted and needed, a morning snack and his mother's embrace. And he got it and was happy! Maybe if we just simply ask we can have a touch of that joy and contentment too:)

Blessings yall!!
