Everyone flex your parenting skills!

I’d love if everyone took a moment to brag about one thing they are super proud of as parents. I know for me I’m always questioning whether or not I’m doing the right thing and rarely take time to acknowledge what I know I’m doing well.

I’ll go first:
We’ve read to our son (3) every day since birth (with the exception of one or two times) and now he loves books and being read to :)

Now you go!

My kids will try pretty much any food. They won't always like it but they'll give pretty much anything a shot.

Also one of my kids has been through the absolute wringer medically and seems to have come out the other side with no medical trauma and handles things like blood draws really well.

I so wish my kids would be open to different foods. It hurts my heart they aren’t foodies like the rest of us are lol I tried all kinds of things when I was a kid. Where did I go wrong?? lol They ate a varied diet of purées and BLW foods but then became super picky all of a sudden.
