Comment on Bringing Home Baby by April

Great post! I felt the same way after I baby was born- we were responsible for him, but I didn’t feel a huge, life-altering, consuming connection like I’d heard from others. I honestly thought something was wrong me. I thought maybe it was because he had to stay in the hospital for a week. I thought maybe I wasn’t emotionally cut out to be a mom. Then, one day, a few months in, after getting the hang of BFing, cuddling, walking, and all that jazz, I looked at him and he did one of those hazy, sleepy smiles and my heart just felt warm and full. I thought, “Oh. So that’s what they meant.” Although it’s not always easy, I am so, so happy he’s here. Thanks for sharing!

Comment on Holiday-themed Parenting Advice from Thornton Wilder by Charles

That quote expresses a great sentiment and one that I think most people take for granted. My kids are grown now, but looking back I can vividly remember how strenuous it was at times to raise them. Wilder’s quote quickly puts all those moments in perspective. Right now, I’m kind of wishing they were young again. I guess that comes when you get to be a grandparent (and hand them back to their owners whenever you want).

Comment on Dear Daisy, Be the Tortoise. You Will Still Get There. Love, Daisy by Rosana Hart

I really like your discussion of progress rather than perfection. Whether it’s weight (as it can be for me too) or getting my exercise or any number of other goals I might be working on, when I try for perfection, I get frustrated because it isn’t going to happen.

But if I try for progress, and use my own standards for what that is, I do way better!

My husband and I have a habit of asking each other during the evening, “What was best for you today?” Often it was something beautiful, like the clouds over the mountains or a sunset, but many times it is a bit of progress!

[...] think about these things, and not be sheep. I don’t aim to raise a sheep, and that’s why my parenting resolutions reject the idea that all authority is to be respected. I’m choosing to go with the less popular [...]
