Learning The Ropes

I became a mom a little over a year ago.  As you often say, the beginning of motherhood is very challenging.  I'm doing my best to keep all screens away from my child for as long as I can, so we listen to all three hours of your podcast every day.  It's a way to listen and not have something playing on TV.

I feel like you've been my own little champion on those lonely days where it was just me and my screaming son.  Through your wisdom, I have learned how to be the type of wife that makes our home a happier loving place.  My husband called yesterday after work and said, "I can't wait to get home to you!"  I know this is because I'm his adorable girlfriend and not his nagging, complaining wife.  

I am also the mother that I want to be.  Despite outside influences telling me that daycare is okay, and I need a career for my "sanity," my child has never had one single day in which he wasn't loved all day.  Thank you for helping shape me.
