One of the hardest things about becoming a parent is relinquishing control. Control over the mess, the aesthetically pleasing toys, schedules. Should I go on? 😂 It takes practice, and I’m not going to lie, I still love giving toys a glow up. i just know it risks being covered in stickers from doctor’s office visits. Embrace the chaos and let’s enjoy parenting a bit more! Share your tips for letting go of control and making messy play more manageable .
