Secret trick for having a great day!

Today I learned a new trick for how to have a great day.  During our 11:15am Mini Jacks sports skills class, one of the students' moms was bonding with her 2-year old daughter, painting her nails.  I walked by and put my hand flat on the table and said to 2-year old Morgan, "Hey, can I get my nails done too?"   Mom didn't miss a beat and painted one nail a bright pink.  Morgan and Mom got a kick out of it, and I had a smile on my face for a minute until I got caught up with something else at the gym.

At least 5 times during the day, I noticed my pink nail.  I proudly showed it off to my The Little Gym staff.  It helped keep me in a playful mood all day.   I don't know if I'll do it that often, but when you can live life, not taking yourself too seriously, the fun you can have, can make your good day into a great one.

Do something fun and silly today!
