I think some of what has helped me (and believe me, I have made my fair share of parenting mistakes!) is to remember that as much as I am teaching them, God uses them to teach me. When I mess up or lose my cool, I am quick to apologize (or back in the day --put myself in time out!) ;) Praying for you as you navigate raising three Littles into Grown Ups who you will actually want to hang out with!

I have two daughters in their 20s and understand well that fine line you mention of when to speak and when to keep quiet. I sometimes get it wrong : ) Im actually with both my girls this week and I prayed a lot about that very thing before getting here. My oldest lives in WA and my youndef daughter and hubs and I in SC. She is expecting our first grandbaby later this summer and my heart feels like it's going to overflow. Enjoy this new little person joining your family. May God bless you and your daughter as you navigate this new path.
