You were expecting one more lesson from Reach The Beach, weren’t you? I planned on recapping my RTB experience today but life as a sometimes solo parent got in the way.
It never fails that when Jay goes away on business that Wild Boy has some crisis that requires long and emotional discussions that leave me spent. There are so many things that I’ve learned to endure in my 44 years on this planet but one certain 7 year old can knock me out colder than Muhammad Ali without the courtesy of a warning punch.
Because my Reach The Beach recap deserves more than I can give it tonight, I ask that you stay tuned until next week for full details and my 3rd Quarter check in for #14in2014 (yup, we’re nearly done with 3/4 of 2014 already!).
Make sure not to miss tomorrow’s Friday’s Featured Female either. Carly@FineFitDay shares an incredible story of how unbelievable circumstances changed her life forever.
Happy Thursday!
What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever heard or read? If it’s parenting-related, bonus points for you.
This too shall pass. It’s my go-to mantra and it works every time. Cannot wait to read more about Carly – one of my most favorite humans 🙂 Hope all is well with M.
I don’t know why this is the first thing that comes to mind, but Finding Nemo’s best line — “Just keep swimming.” That really sums it up. 🙂
All is well with the little guy. It’s just that things take a long time to sort out as those little brains, hearts and sense of the world develops, it’s not always easy to incorporate the grey areas of life. My guy is like me, a talker and polar in feelings so we clash sometimes but as you said, “this too shall pass” and I need to remember that. Thanks for the mama support! xo
Hoping your guy is better as well.
I think those are wise words. Thank you, Ashley!
xo I feel you. So excited that Carly will be featured tomorrow!
Parenting is one exhausting endeavor, isn’t it? You said it well that you weren’t even tired after RTB because that must be close to your normal. Scary but I can relate as well.
Ahh. Parenting. It’s the hardest job in the entire world. Every age brings a new challenge. It’s all hard.
There are days that you think you have it the bag and then that bubble bursts, hard.
