Writing today as a mother of five I’ll share some of my parenting tips, passed on from my Grandma and Mom. A core belief I have as a Mom is to offer all the love I could and practice patience at all times.
I always stayed in reality and expected at times there would be shenanigans going on.
I took the time to sort things out, to avoid an exaggerated reply to an act that would not matter at the end of the day.
I accept the idea that being a Mom does not have a time limit. It was going to be forever.
I expected to be challenged or overloaded with work. At those times I tried my best to show my silly side.
I wasn’t too stubborn to ask for help. I would let the “genie out of the bottle” or call in the “Good Fairy’s” to lend a hand
Happy Mother’s Day’s
Nice story. I always tell me son to be thankful that he came with an invisible helping of extra patience when he was born…lol.
Amazing, how you both made, a commitment to forever. Accepting help, actively choosing not to sit and wait for it. As a self proclaimed future parent. I contemplate long term commitment. Conceitedly happy I sit, knowing. A mother’s commitment is always stronger. More parenting tips please.
