Gratitude and growth. Gratitude that this fellow Gratitude and growth. Gratitude that this fellow chose us 9 years ago, and gave us the privilege of watching her grow into her own person, and us into higher versions of ourselves. And growth From bruised knees to broken hearts From the clingy baby to the privacy needing tween From cleaning dirty diapers to swear words From why questions to why not, From slippery fish to Sigmaboy From a clueless new mum to a conscious parent who embraces the cluelessness It has been brutally hard and joyful bliss navigating different seasons with my V. As much as I raise her, she ends up raising a parent who unlearns every day- forcing us to confront ourselves, evolve with compassion and heal ourselves. I grieve that one stage of parenting and childhood is over and am also excited about what is to come. Lesser hair, stronger boundaries, softer heart, more consciousness.✨ #ammatoday
Ep 2: SEL picture books Here are our top favourit Ep 2: SEL picture books Here are our top favourites to help children overcome fear. We love them because they're diverse, do not say "don't be afraid", and do not rush to the hopeful ending, instead they help the conflicting, difficult, internal struggles be seen. 1. Jabari Jumps @gaiacornwall A sweet book that looks into the struggle of Jabari as he tries to dive.  Deals beautifully with the conflicting emotions of I want to and I don't think I can. A powerful reminder of the magic an emphatetic adult can do for a child. 2. The koala who could @rachelbrightbooks Kevin the koala is afraid of getting off his tree. But what happens when he is forced to. Perfect for young toddlers, this book gently reminds you to give your fear a chance. 3. The girl who never made mistakes @authorstrator What if the fear is of making mistakes? Perfect for every deeply feeling child, this one reminds us to take things a little less seriously and the importance of being able to laugh at ourselves. 4. Brave everyday @trudyludwig What happens when a girl who likes to hide is asked for help? A book that gently nudges you to show up despite your fears. 5. The thing Lou couldn't do @ashleyspires Lou can do anything and everything, except climb a tree. This one follows all the stages she goes through when her friends decide to climb. Full of imagination, creativity, humor and realistic portrayal, I love love love the ending of this book. 6. The Whatifs @kilgem I recommend this one for all children and adults with anxiety. A delightful book that validates anxiety and shows the power of positive thinking. These are great for 2-10 years but I'm an adult who loves picture books, so🤷🏻‍♀️ We've read a few of these in bookclub and EQ week. Do you recognise them? #ammatoday_books Raising readers, emotional regulation, sel, kidlit, picture books that matter, courage, overcome fear, bravery, strength,
