This Year’s Best Parenting Tips

You are rock stars, moms!

There are days I love being a mom so much. I bawl at every sappy commercial. I hug my kids and hum happy tunes while I fold laundry. Sure, life isn’t perfect. There are legos strewn about and a never-ending to-do list, but I’m content.

Other days are totally different. The sink overflows, the kids fight non-stop, one gets in trouble at school — again, and I wonder what on earth I was thinking having children. Who are these little creatures who live in my house? I’m sure my children wonder who this raging adult woman is who screeches at them. What happened to happy, humming mom?

Parenting is tough, amazing, exhausting, and incredible. Fewer tasks in life are as challenging — or rewarding — as the job of raising your child well.

Teaming together with other parents for advice, tips, and support is vital to successfully manage the role of mom. That’s why you’ll love the series we’ve put together for you in this post: The Year’s Best Parenting Tips.
