This is how we make our sweet little EIEO, next and closer to perfection.
Parenting is a tough job and raising our kids is really challenging. With this, hubby and I believe that it is indeed a very noble profession, a lifetime commitment… and of course, a continuous learning process. Our “first-time” experiences are our teachers. And with this, I keep on reading lots of books and posts on responsible and effective parenting. In this post, I would share some nice quotes and even some practical tips that Rainier and I religiously do to our little prince, Eieo. Hope you’ll enjoy and learn from these, too. Happy reading!
