Parenting is a journey. It has its ups and downs.

The short read

If you have been following my work, you will know that I work by connecting dots. Here are the dots for today's post:

  • Any parent will tell you that what worked with child one often does not work with child two. Each child is a unique parenting journey.
  • There are highs and lows throughout the journey.
