The most important parenting tool we have, is our bond with our children. It is the foundation that helps them develop physically, emotionally and socially. Our kids need to know how we feel about our role as the people who take care of them. They need to know that we can handle things that are big and scary, and that we don't feel burdened by the role. It is truly an honor to be their parent (even though it can also be seriously challenging at times). Our children need the security of know that we are going to take care of ourselves and our emotional needs so they don't forgo their own needs in pursuit of what they think our needs are.
