Things to Remember

“Being open to learning from your children models, learning is a lifelong process.”

“Children will teach you about yourself and the work you still need to do more than anyone in life.”

“Your voice is a tool of creation and you have the power to use it to uplift or tear down in your home.”

“Love is the cure for all that ails us, parenting and beyond.”

“Letting your child know how much you love them, and that you’re there for them, will plant their spirit in deep, rich soil as they grow.”

“It’s important for your child to be a child and not lose their childhood.”

“Parents need to feel more grace in terms of being able to take care of themselves.”

“Be more intentional in how you’re choosing to live and parent.”
