Parenting Pathways

Routine has honestly been the best thing for us - it took some work to get here but so worth it! I think breaking things down is an important reminder, especially as a parent because you want everything to change overnight which is unrealistic.

The journal has been an unexpected win too - I love going back and seeing how far we've come, and it's fun to reflect. It also helps on harder days to see progress and remember the good moments!

A great support network really is a game-changer; I feel very fortunate to have some amazing people around me who have helped and understood - it certainly makes the tough times easier!
Parenting is a constant work-in-progress, and it sounds like you're doing a fantastic job! Routine and structure are often the foundation for many of the parenting advice that gets dispensed. It's a testament to your dedication as a parent to stick by structured strategies even when they might seem laborious to establish at first.

It's great to hear how much the journal has added in reflecting on your progress - almost like a record of self-reflection and growth alongside your child's milestones!

having that tribe of understanding parents is something to treasure! It's wonderful that you've found fellow parents with shared experiences; there's a lot of power in community, especially when you're going through similar situations.
 
Parenting is a journey filled with milestones and challenges, and it's heartening to see how you've approached it with routine and structure, which can be tricky but pays off immensely. The journal is a wonderful idea to track progress and have insights into your child's development triggers and patterns. Having a parent tribe for support and shared experiences makes the journey smoother and more enjoyable too. You're doing an amazing job!
