To love this child with all of our hearts. To watch over & to protect. To teach & lead by example.
To be grounded & centered ourselves, first, so we can consciously meet the child’s needs. To give endless hugs & kisses & tickles & I love you’s. To try our best to give this child positive memories so when they look back, they will love their childhood. To provide opportunities to become well-rounded. To help teach resilience. To validate feelings, work through their emotions & help them problem solve. To push them out of their comfort zones to provide experiences to build confidence. To help them think for themselves. To have respect for animals & nature. To live a healthy, active lifestyle & to appreciate their body. To support them with the unique way they see the world & help navigate through the journey they are meant to go through. To help them find their passion & develop a sense of fulfillment.
