Featured Response 💬
“Prior to us even thinking about kids, we had discussed parenting styles. What we would be open to and what were non negotiable boundaries. Every once in a while when something new comes up (4yr old is now a picky eater) we will differ but we are good about taking it back and focusing on a game plan for future scenarios.”
I love this so much! Having those big talks early and then checking back in as new kid quirks pop up (hello picky eating 🙃) is such a good example of working through things together as parents. -Danielle 😊
