Having a child is an opportunity to re-explore myself — experiencing magic and wonderment again, from the joys of Disneyland to the sombre, warmth of a school furnace on a soggy day. It will be my responsibility to create cherished experiences and memories, as my childhood brought me.
Having a child also made me think more about and reach out to family.
Our job is not to stop them from falling; it’s to pick them up.
Guide your child to who they are meant to be, not who you want them to be.
Share don’t tell.
Making the decision to have a child – it is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.
