it's awesome how kids pick up skills, especially the persuasive and negotiating ones! You just can't help but marvel at their resilience and ability to adapt, which reminds me constantly of the importance of being a positive role model. As you said, it can be pretty humbling too when you realize the impact of your every action and word on them. Does that also resonate with you?

It's definitely a humbling experience that pushes me to be a better person and parent every day.

I think most parents will feel the pressure of being watched by their little ones and try their best to be good role models. The idea of being a positive influence definitely keeps many of us going, especially during tough times!

It's quite amazing how much our lives can change and evolve once children come into the picture. The desire to be better for them somehow gives us the drive and perseverance to take on challenges that we might have never thought possible. That's the beauty of parenthood!
