As a parent to a newborn, and now three children, I find life to be even harder. Knowing this sweet boy is my last baby, I tend to spoil him to some extent. When he cries or fusses, we pick him up to calm him down. He loves being in arms and being cuddled, so we continue to do it, because essentially, it seems easier than hearing him cry. My mistake! Now, he is in my arms ALL THE TIME I feel like. Therefore, I have learned to do many things around the house with one hand, or at least with him in his carrier on my front side.
I am a 4th grade teacher who loves to crochet in my free time. Crocheting used to be a full time business for me, but now is set aside as a hobby. Along with teaching and crocheting, the rest of my time is spent with my family. This blog is a mix of topics including my parenting adventures, perspective on education and child development, and lastly, the art of crocheting.
