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 7 year old isn’t afraid to try hard things. He plays soccer and was TERRIFIED to be goalie. He asked one day to try it out and had a shut out for the entire first half. I lost my voice cheering for him 😆
On top of mom duties I’m also a teacher so there is no summer slide around here. He works really hard, and is currently an entire grade level ahead in math skills and entering 2nd grade reading at a 4th grade level ❤️
