Learning new skills is always a challenge.
I am reflecting on this because I am learning new skills.
My mum always said that we never stop learning and she was right.
As I grow older I reflect upon her life experiences and her guidance.
When I was a first time mum my mother was such a wealth of knowledge and she was part of my support team.
Her and dad would show me different strategies for coping with the overwhelming sense of responsibility of being a parent.
Planning my day
Caring for the new little person in my life.
Caring for my own needs:
* resting when I needed it
* taking the time to talk or to listen
These things are so important in the early stages of parenthood.
If you are a parent..
Who was your "go to person"?
Who was your support team?
I would love to hear your thoughts.
