@alexabroderick_: one thing I do *often* as a first generation cycle breaker trying to heal my nervous system while raising securely attached children is REPAIR❤️🩹🛠️🔧🫶🏾 children are actually so, so beyond gracious and patient with us 🥹it kills me that I don’t always extend that same courtesy to my children. But I want them to know mommy is a work in progress and my flaws are not their fault nor a reflection of their worth. And it’s not lost on me that these conversations almost always occur during my luteal phase 😭🫠 mothering through severe PMS/PMDD is a wild ride. #intentionalparenting #secureattachment #cyclebreaker #nervoussystemhealing #honestmotherhood
"Because you ALWAYS start with an apology" 🥹☹️I'm gonna go cry

This is parenting… teaching, learning, caring and accountability. Give yourself grace and he is learning forgiveness and you are his emotional safe place. You are doing a great job MAMA!!!
We didn’t have this when we grew up so we’re doing it differently, I LOVE this 😊

The cord comment is insanely cool because that is critical thinking about an abstract concept, and he can do that because he has always been given the space to make connections in safe and caring ways.
