A Small Win You Might Miss by Fern Weis, Parent + Family Recovery Coach

It matters.
If you didn’t raise your voice today…
If you paused before you spoke…
If you softened your tone after starting sharp…
Consider it a win. It counts.
These are invisible wins.
The ones only you are consciously aware of.
They are also the ones that change the course of your relationship.
Notice them.
They matter.
P.S. That sounded a lot more encouraging than "watch your tone," didn't it? There's more gentle guidance and entertaining stories in "Leashes, Lessons, and Love: What Dogs Teach Us About Raising Our Kids and Ourselves." My new book is filled with real-life stories of my family — and our dogs, of course — to approach parenting with more calm and confidence and the occasional LOL.
