My 2 golden nuggets of parenting are patience and acceptance. There are so many parts on parenting that are challenging. Because there’s the sleepless nights, there’s the stress of work, there’s the stress of being a parent and you’ve just got to be patient with yourself and with your children and with your partner. It’s vital for the balance of your family life. And acceptance. Accepting, okay, you wanted to go on this vacation and your child now has the flu. You just have to be in acceptance and that’s part of having a family and being a parent.
