Food For Thought
Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It’s very easy to forget about yourself when you are a parent, particularly when your children are very young and require constant care.
Don’t forget to take some time out for yourself! I’m a big proponent of going to Starbucks, getting a cappuccino, and chilling out! Leisure time is needed to help us unwind and relax.
But you need more than just leisure time… I also want to challenge you to do something that requires you to learn something new. Why I am I suggesting this? Because when we learn something new, we get outside of the daily ‘rut’ of our mind and become sharper, better, smarter, and more engaged.
And guess what? You’ll become a better parent in the process!
So, go take up ballroom dancing (or whatever it is that you’re going to learn!) and get baby-talking!
