Becoming Your Best (Parent) Self
I always thought I was a pretty patient person. I always imagined that I would be a fun, kind, extremely loving and pretty much, the best parent EVER! Then I had kids…. Man, do they test and push all my buttons. Here are two tips I am constantly working on to help me become my best parent self. I hope they help.
Practice, Practice, Practice
Parenting is a funny thing. It is something that we get to practice EVERY…. SINGLE…. DAY…. You get to practice becoming your “best parent self”. Everyone may have different ideas of exactly what that is. But that doesn’t matter because we get to re-do, re-test, and re-invent our parenting strategies at the beginning of everyday.
What an amazing way to master our parenting skills! It is not always easy, but boy is it worth it. Through all the challenges/practice we face everyday, we get a step closer to being our “best parent selfs”
Be Quick To Forgive
I am so grateful that everyday we can have a do over. We can let go of things that happened the previous day and try again. When I first thought of forgiving I first thought of talking to your child and making amends with them. That is a very important step, however I think it is equally important to forgive yourself.
Too often I think back on mistakes I have made and things I wish I didn’t do or say. I put myself down, and wish I was a better parent. So be quick to forgive yourself as well as making amends with your child/children.
