Trust – that you are the right parent for your child.

When you butt heads it means you have a lot to teach each other.

Through our struggles we learn our deepest life lessons – this is true for you and your child. Through our love we keep the motivation to learn and grow from those struggles.

If you had waited until you were *just right* to have a child, you may never have had a family. The dynamic you have is not set in stone, and if it is frustrating it is teaching the things uniquely suited to your family.

We are all growing and learning. Your child has things to teach you right now, and you have beautiful thins to teach your child too.

The love you give cannot be duplicated.

You are the right parent for your child.

Parenting Secret Missions are quick ideas for connecting with your kids, trying out a new parenting idea, finding gratitude amidst chaos, sparking conversation and finally, inspiring fun! Don’t take them too seriously, read them with a spirit of adventure or experimenting and keep the mission in mind for the day if it strikes you.
