Your parenting journey will be anything but perfect. In fact, you’ll be on a journey that’s often marked by imperfections. You may often feel unhappy where you are along the parenting path. Everything you once knew changes. Suddenly that nice clean white shirt you have worn for years doesn’t quite fit the same, and it also has spit-up stains on it. Outward appearances are not the only thing that changes. Finances, schedules, and your sex life also become upended. Let go of attempting to hold on to what once was and say, I am the light of perfection. My baby is the light of perfection. Our family is the light of perfection now. This mantra encourages you to replace perfection with presence. Put your attention on your light and know you are on a well-traveled journey.
