MOM’s Favorite…
...inspirational quote:
“Don’t let the muggles get you down.”We
love Harry Potter in our home and how it continually sends the
message to be your unique self regardless of what others around you
may say or think.
...parenting book or philosophy:
“Kids do well if they can.”When
you look at your child through this lens, it not only gives you more
patience with them but helps you switch from punishing them to
actually teaching them. They learn to feel confident in themselves
instead of always feeling like a “bad kid.”
...effortless dinner:
Gabe has actually started making dinner. We’ve
always had the rule that if you don’t cook, then you have to clean. He
hates doing dishes so has decided to be the head chef in our family.
We’ve been eating lots of cheeseburgers and tacos lately.
