To remember that they grow up so quickly so make the most of their early years, and pick your battles.
Can you share a parenting advice post with us from your blog too; your favourite one? Why do you like this post? Please include the link for us.:
My favourite is my post on Helping your child’s speech and language, as it’s a topic close to my heart and I have been told the post is useful, so if it helps anyone even a little bit – then I am happy! http://intheplayroom.co.uk/2013/07/13/helping-your-childs-speech-and-language/
Who’s your favourite parent blogger at the moment and why? Please include a link to their blog home page.:
It’s hard to pick just one favourite! But I will go with Jenny from www.thebrickcastle.com as her blog has a great mix of recipes, days out, reviews and funny posts which I always enjoy reading.
