I’m a few days behind, but just about a year ago, this little blog got its start. So how am I doing so far? I haven’t written as much as I would like, but this year has brought a lot with it.

I have become a small part of an outstanding community of women via (cool) progeny. I have continued to explore my own ideas of parenting and the complex issues that parents face on a regular basis. I have learned a lot about myself and other parenting philosophies. I have rediscovered that it is most difficult to be patient with oneself. I have created a little voice on the internet that hopefully speaks to some parents and helps them in some small way.

The topics that I’ve covered so far (from tantrums to discipline to structure to fun to patience to praise) are a great start, but I am really interested in finding out from you what your concerns are. I may not have all of the answers, but I will do my best to answer questions directly or in a new post on your topic of choice.

What do you think? What is the biggest challenge of your day? What has you just stymied? Let me know & I’ll try to help!
