I have 3 kids, between ages almost 2 to 6.5, and a big theme for me in the past year has been trying to practice valuing meeting our needs for rest and ease. It's just not something that was modeled for me but I want it to be different for my kids. My hope is that valuing rest/ease is one additional tactic for *not* raising my kids to always feel not good "enough."

For the folks interested in a talk about Ask vs. Guess Culture, I wrote a talk for this a few years ago now: https://kwugirl.blogspot.com/2015/05/ask-vs-guess-culture-communications.html
Thanks for the inspiration Jean, and good luck in the newborn era :)
