Have a wonderful day!
Well my little one isn't done out of the oven, but I would have to say being optimistic and having an interesting sense of humor helps me most. It helps a lot in serious frustrating moments to look at see that at least I'm there and then I look and see how ridiculous I am.
I think developing a supportive relationship is best right now. Nick and I parent positive and effectively everyday. My family is also very supportive and they help me out a lot when ever I need them.
What is most helpful for me is don't let your problems define you because I really don't let others opinions define who I am, I am who I am, and I love me for that. For parenting Elijah I need to have a sense of humor because I can't take everything he does to the heart, I need to laugh off some of the crazy things he does, for example hitting me in the head with a flashlight! lol.
I feel like focusing on solutions is most helpful for me at the moment because it basically means to just focus on ways to make your life easier and pay attention to solving problems. I feel like having a good sense of humor is good while parenting PJ right now because he is getting so smart and starting to do things that he understands he isnt supposed to but he always just looks back and smiles and you do have to make sure he listens but its always good to smile and laugh even though he can be a stinker and make you frustrated.
Not letting problems define me. I chose this one due to the fact that I never let Pj become affected by my problems. I try to not let my problems make my personality and etc..
You are all truly doing a great job problem solving and thinking about your particular situation and trying to be your personal best each and every day!
