12 Tips For How to Be a Great Mom (Her Times)

12 Tips For How to Be a Great Mom

There's a great guest post over at ZenHabits blog (this is one you should bookmark...always full of great, useful info) by Verda who gives 12 Tips for How to Be A Great Mom.

I identify & agree wholeheartedly with all of her tips -- particularly the ones about giving kids some space to make mistakes and learn to do things on their own which...coincidentally gives YOU, mom and dad, some time to pursue your own interests and find happiness in your own life.

In my personal opinion, too many parents get too wrapped up in their children's lives, give up all the activities and friends they love and then...they have no life of their own. And, honestly, your life and happiness should not be resting on your children's shoulders -- it's an enormous burden for anyone to carry around.
