I always say less is more when it comes to words.
Write too many words to get your point across, and I’ll probably stop reading.
Say too many words to get your point across, and I’ll definitely stop listening.
How would you communicate differently if you had a daily word limit? What if you only had 10 words to tell a story?
To promote my “less is more” mentality about words, I’m introducing “10 or Less Tuesdays.” Each Tuesday, I’ll challenge myself AND YOU to post the week’s story in 10 words or less. After you read my “10 or Less” come up with your own and leave it in the comments!
To jumpstart this weekly challenge, everyone who leaves a “10 or Less” in the comments will be entered into a random drawing to win your choice of three of my favorite new products (Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri, Cocoa Roast Almonds or new Pretzel M&Ms). I’ll announce the winner in the comments section on Monday. And because I’m so excited to see what you have to say, the composer of my favorite “10 or Less” will win one, too!
My first 10 or Less.
Start counting……………….now!
Baby crawls and gets first tooth. Mama’s heart smiles.
Because Mama’s heart smiles for baby, Lucy’s heart melts.
Almost time for the question, how did sand get there?
If sand equals sun, I know you’ll have fun!

Lesson of the week: confidence comes with accomplishment
Are you trying to say I talk to much?
Never!!
Brilliant!
Date night makes any week alright.
Love it
Hope it’s a fun evening! Enjoy!
It’s party time! Where has the past year gone?!
Okay, it’s time to announce our winners!
The winner of the random drawing is a newbie to the comments section of Girl Grows Up…drum roll, please?
“10 or Less” #10 wins! I’ll be in touch, Josh! Congrats and thanks for your contribution.
Now for my favorite….that goes to “10 or Less” #5. Melissa, as soon as I read your 10 or Less, I began to wonder who hurt your feelings and do they even know? Then I thought, maybe nobody hurt your feelings. Instead, maybe one of your friends made you feel better about something that happened. In either case, you got me thinking. And I like that! I’ll be in touch.
Thanks to EVERYONE who played along. I hope you’ll do it again tomorrow.

On a side note, Tara says I would like the pretzel M&Ms as my prize.
I had a feeling you’d say that.
