Understand Confidence and Trust Yourself in All Situations
Building your child’s confidence is one of the enormous tasks we have as we decide to raise our children. But what about your own confidence? It becomes more difficult to assess yourself and make improvements in the area of confidence, especially if you do not see yourself as a confident person already.
I thought this post would gain a lot of traction because we can all use a confidence boost at times no matter where your confidence level is.

3 Reasons Raising a Toddler is a Unique Challenge
Toddler life is like no other life you have lived before. There are specific reasons that make raising a toddler a unique. Even if you have previous toddler experience, this current toddler will be different that the last one. It is hard to explain how different it is. But it will be different. Transitioning from that infant stage to toddler stage is a lot of times like going down hill on a scooter. It should be fun and enjoyable, but you keep thinking about how dangerous it can be. Even with all the safety precautions.
This post is full of the fun and challenges of toddler life. Toddlers all have specific characteristics that make them those little ones we adore, but they are also all individuals who are trying to become more independent every day. Ever wonder how to get through it or want to reflect on how you made it through? This post is for you!
Sleep is one area that all parents can relate to. There are always some sort of adjustments going on with the sleep of a toddler.

How to Use Letter Writing as a Form of Journaling
This was one of my favorite posts of the month because I love to journal. It is great for my mental health and it is also wonderful for memory keeping. Using letters as a form of journaling is beneficial because it is a creative way to capture your thoughts about a certain event or to a certain person. Even to yourself at a previous time or in the future. Try it out!

Trusting yourself is so important. For years I always listens to others and never myself and I regret that. It’s good to have self confidence.
Yes, headphonesthoughts! Believe in who you are and the decisions you make for yourself. You are the expert on you. Gaining that trust in yourself is a difficult task but you can do it. |Shanna|
