little signs like these tell me my child feels happy. and i’m so grateful for it. 💕 I’ve kept his artwork over the years and there’s always a cute little smile that appears here and there. I work hard to fill his cup. he’s had some tough days at school this year, and we have spent many extra time one-on-one playing & connecting so that I can understand his needs better. everytime we come to a hurdle like this, I first go fill my cup, and then I can pour into his cup. and then we ride the wave of it together. most importantly is he knows I’ll always believe him and have his back. #trust #respectfulparenting #gentleparenting #conscousparenting #intuitiveparenting #parentingkids #schoolkids #growingup #parenting #raisingconfidentkids https://www.instagram.com/p/CjXBVb8pmlN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
