Mowing the yard is not on my list of favorite things to do. But, while mowing the yard the other day, I got a pleasant surprise.

I was mowing along and then happened to look up at our front porch. I saw two little girls and their mom cheering me along as mowed.

If you know our two little ones, you know that they can get excited over virtually anything, so this isn’t an email to explain how praiseworthy my mowing skills are.

The point of today’s email is that we all need a cheerleader sometimes. Sometimes you just need a little pick me up from someone in your life cheering you on towards your goals.

Having my own cheerleading crew certainly lifted my spirits.

Think today about whose spirits you can lift.

Who in your life needs a cheerleader?

Who needs someone jumping up and down in excitement for them?

Find that someone in your life and cheer them on.

Speaking of cheerleaders, I couldn’t resist sending out this clip:
