Mood Swings/Tantrums might be one of the toughest things in parenting, whether it’s dealing with a whiny toddler or going for a ride on your teenager’s emotional roller coaster.

Sometimes it can feel like life gets so busy I lose track of my daughter in all the chaos.
I am a busy mom but it wasn’t always that way.

I have an almost 4-year-old and lately it’s been incredibly challenging to handle her big meltdowns.
The ones where she’s wailing non-stop while flailing on the floor, occasionally standing up to hit me on my legs.

It’s very tiring and now that she’s older and bigger, it’s taking a bit longer for her to settle.

Most children will move from their crib to a toddler bed or regular bed between 18 months and three years old.

Did you blink your eyes and now your child is approaching the age of the beginning of kindergarten?
I did! Did you just get done registering them for school? Did that thought make you panic?
Are you breathing heavily now?
Stop, take a breath mama, we can get there together!

Have you ever just had one of those days?
A day when you question where you may have gone wrong? I definitely have them from time to time.
Sometimes when I have what I think is a great idea, and then it turns into a big fail.
Sometimes when I feel like I just got it all together, and then the rug is pulled out from under me.

Learning in lockdown is a struggle.
It’s difficult for us parents, it’s difficult for our children and it’s difficult for the teachers.
