Choose Your Battles.


Be it with your parents, children, friends or anyone; sometimes it's just not worth the fight. However, if you're going to battle for it -- stick with it, don't back down unless proven wrong. Which leads to:


Stand Up For What You Believe In. (even if it means standing alone)

Today, I was reading Prudent Baby (a great DIY blog) and clicked over to read "500 Pieces of Prudent Advice For My Baby Daughter." After reading through some of them; I decided this is an amazing way to share things, that come to you on a day to day basis, or at completely random times, things that you really feel your children need to know. I love how Prudent Baby throws in quotes, or famous (and not-so-famous) pictures, such a great idea! So, I'm stealing it.. go ahead, start your own, I'll share.
