So I'm glad that little improvement kicked in! But I wish I could blow off the stupid things that don't matter in life, and not let it cloud my time with her. Like work. At the end of the day, work troubles are just so trivial. She is what matters. I looked at her beautiful face in the dark after she fell asleep tonight in my arms and I just thought, "Why do I stress about dumb shiz? I've got all that really matters RIGHT HERE."

Right now it's solid food meals, but I'm sure there will be all sorts of other challenges down the road. Once we get into a routine that works, I have a hard time making changes. prettylizy on "How can you improve as a parent?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-can-you-improve-as-a-parent#post-700735 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 21:10:19 +0000 prettylizy 700735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I need to be more proactive instead of reactive, I think this will help with my patience googly-eyes on "How can you improve as a parent?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-can-you-improve-as-a-parent#post-700724 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 21:06:19 +0000 googly-eyes 700724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Being more present is something I'm working on too.
