The little guy I'm asking myself these questions for.
What I have come up with so far is sort of guiding principles, rather than any sort of plan - as I realize, now, with a baby, that plans go right out the window (along with pride.)
-To enjoy my children (there's only one so far)
-Be flexible
-Be in my integrity (meaning that I do not need to apologize for my parenting choices and I must resist trying to meet the expectations of others.)
-Sort out what serves our family
-Focus on my way of being, as everything follows that (i.e. be loving, be respectful, be encouraging)
Fortunately, I get to spend time with many fantastic mothers all doing things differently and respecting each other. May that be an ongoing truth in my life!
As always my dear friend, you are an inspiration. Hugs from up North on this blustery day.
