Hi. I'm 32 years old and married to my best friend. We just had our first baby, Gray. We really, really love him. This blog has been the escape for my feelings, questions, excitement, fears and the joy I felt in my ten months as a pregnant lady.

Now I'm a mom....who knows what's next.

There is an article that is making it’s way around the early ed/parenting circles. I’ve recently received it from the director of Gray’s school (who sent it out to all parents), an old high school teacher, and two friends.

It’s a really interesting read, with what I think are a lot of valid points.

My question in reading it, though, is how do you strike the right balance throughout his life? How do you support and love your child and teach them that you’re proud of them no matter what, while still raising them in an environment where they don’t get everything they want, aren’t the center of the universe, learn and understand disappointment…but still feel loved.

I know there’s no right answer, but I found this article really fascinating. Hopefully you will too.

Here you go!
