But yes - it is a very nice thing about submitting. greengirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06897315716330033528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3865362691562112420.post-74042125763600616092014-08-24T07:53:23.842-04:002014-08-24T07:53:23.842-04:00My Husband and I are the same way.

I think I am that way because I am always trying to control everything, so I have to know and analyze the problems, which I can't do if I am in a "Pollyanna" state. I think that is one of the reason' submission feels so good, as it often means I have to let go of my attitude. <br /><br />Nice list!

And absolutely - i do think it's a big part of being a mom - how could it not really? greengirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06897315716330033528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3865362691562112420.post-17316229853810306272014-08-19T07:51:46.519-04:002014-08-19T07:51:46.519-04:00Bleue - i think it's terrific that he was able...Bleue - i think it's terrific that he was able to help you learn to cope with the worry or to control it somewhat. I think that's what my husband is working towards - he knows it is part of who i am - but that i can at least be aware so i don't give into it so completely. And for me - being made to recognize the good things is an important part of it.

He encouraged/taught me how to do that. <br /> Though not all highs or rainbows, I do believe there is such power in focusing on all the things that are going well...and I love your list!
