I loved the article on mommy brain! This definitely HAS to be true! Before I had children I could barely take care of myself…then after having kids it seemed I had changed. I was more caring and responsible, I was able to put them before me, teach them, and love on them at all hours. Something amazing happens when you become a mother!!!
We recently had a “beginning” talk about sex with y 10 year old. Both my husband and I were present. I made sure to let him know that if he ever had any questions about what “a girl” thought, might think, or felt that I was there for him.
And finally THANK YOU SO MUCH for including me in your Tuesday Tours! It means a lot!!! I always enjoy reading them and finding me in them is a very sweet surprise!!! ( :
The Birth Sense blog looks like it has a lot of good information. Thanks for the link!
I agree! I’m not sure how I stumbled upon that link, but I hope to go back and spend some additional time on that blog soon.
I read the article on dads being the one to have the talk with their daughters. My husband is the one who gives the talk to all our children. What a relief. And, I think they have a very healthy view of that topic.
