Affirmations

Being a parent can be hard. It seems no matter how hard you try, there is always something you could be doing better.

Tonight Ashton and I were making sentences with his sight word cards. I would pick a word, he shouted out the next word he wanted and we would look for it. Slowly, we built a room full of sentences. "We went to get soup." "Look over there." "It is big."

After a while I set out the word "Mom." Without a second to think he blurted out "Love."

I guess I must be doing something right.
