4 Parenting tips from Mary’s example for when you feel discouraged
4 Parenting tips from Mary’s example for when you feel discouraged When my wife told me we were expecting our first child, I felt my heart grow two sizes. I was elated. I was also nervous. Really, really nervous. This was 12 years ago when I’d only recently graduated from college and secured my first job. We lived far from home and, honestly, were fairly naive about the world and what parenting requires. Like most first-time parents, we acquired a changing table, crib, mobile, high-chair, tiny baby-sized shoes, a tub to fit in the kitchen sink, walkie-talkies to spy on our beloved little one at night, and so, so much more. Apparently, we aren’t the only first-timers who lined our nest with unnecessary baby items. It’s all part of the experience. Partly, we fall prey to it because even though having a baby is exciting it also causes serious soul-searching. It really makes a person question if they’re up to the task.
