Becoming a parent and traveling with my family helped me reprioritize my time, energy, and money on creating meaningful moments
What about those moments you're supposed to look forward to, only to discover they actually aren't as magical as you thought? We're here to let you down (gently) about these 15 "magical" parenting moments.
Sure, high school gets all the glory, but preschool is the place where innocence still lives.
There is something beautiful about parenting that, I think in the hustle and bustle of life, I tend to forget. The element of raising a child that is ever changing and ever developing is so common that it can seem a burden rather than a blessing.
I know this day will come; I'm just not sure when it will be. I do, however, know that I won't be ready when it arrives.
Every day my life is perfect. Every day I know can never be replaced. Every day I want to squeeze just one more precious moment with my children just as they are now. Every day I'm tired and worn down. Every day I blink.
Most of the time we don't think about time. It passes unnoticed. Time becomes important only when something needs to get done, or undone. A deadline, an appointment.
This spring and summer I challenge you to see how you can impact the world and get involved with your community. Every single day you are given is an opportunity to achieve greatness. Don't be afraid to make an impact and leave a positive impact on the world!!!
Don't wallow in misery even if you do have to drag the dumb heavy car seat and diaper bag with you everywhere because the great news is you won't be walking into kindergarten with it. Take care of yourself NOW, so you don't feel beaten down tomorrow!
