The older women in my life have told me that they see a lot of parents paying constant attention to their young children, but back in the "old days," it was considered important to let them learn to enjoy their own company and entertain themselves, which I found interesting. They didn't neglect their kids, but it seems like they knew the value of the concept you mentioned of creating a safe space for babies and young children to exist without constant attention.

I have to tell you I’ve been binging your videos and I have to say you are a breath of fresh air! The “sun” is your name is so fitting, you’ve been a ray of light for me when I need a reminder to slow down. I’ve been getting rid of clutter, minimizing, and being more mindful because of your videos and it has helped me so much. You’ve helped me in a way you’ll never know…So a long winded thank you. ❤

Spontaneous dance parties are definitely a go-to in our house! Having five kids, I've found the grumpy boredom to disappear pretty quickly with some good music and movement.

“Pick up a banana and call your toddler” was by far my favorite quote from this video 😂. Going through all your older content because your videos are absolutely beautiful. My kids love watching them too.

Ah self care is a hard one for me to prioritize... I tend to choose getting stuff done over taking care of myself. I do have a habit of getting ready first thing in the morning so I'm good to go for the day. Another habit is making tea after lunch and reading outside if the weather is nice (even though my toddler interrupts me 20x lol)

I totally agree about the whole taking a simple cold shower in the middle of the day that’s the best!!

I remember when my older kids were tiny, and they could spend hours just playing with LEGOs. It was amazing. I was able to work out during the time they would do that. I would put a gate on their room door so if they really needed me, they could call for me but not come in to interrupt my workout. It was something I really needed. I so love my diffuser and candles. My little luxury haha. Yey for dance parties. Those are the best. Getting out of the house with friends is something I didn't do much unless I took my kids with me everywhere, and some friends actually abandoned me because they were tired of always having my kids around when hanging out. I don't think I even had a baby sitter until my kids were 8 and 6. My husband and I have always liked taking our kids with us on outings, but now that they can watch themselves at home at 16 and 14, we love our special dates. Of course, now we have another baby on the way, so I already warned my friends that baby is going everywhere with me and they are cool with that now that they are older and not still in college like when I had my first ones. Everyone keeps telling me that my older kids will be live in baby sitters but I don't want to do that to them unless they are okay with helping out every so often. They deserve their freedoms (especially since by the time this baby is a toddler, one will be entering college age). It's tricky but good to find a balance no matter what.

Love this video ! As single mom it can be hard put myself first and also no one to ask for a break to mind my son - in saying this I love your suggestions ! Be silly and have more fun is my goals this year as I need more laughs and being silly with my son ! Sometimes I write things down and say to myself if not that important forget it for today lol 😝 This has really changed my mindset ! It really makes me lighten up in this stressful world ! My favourite thing to do is get up first and get ready first as starts my day off way better once I don’t have stress on the school run that I need get ready lol 😆 and last get ready then be late 😂

Self care to me is to make tea in a pot with a cup and saucer not just straight in the mug! To light a candle when it’s dusk. To set the table properly for dinner. A bath with a nice oil. Nothing expensive. My friends buy me gifts of tea, candles and oils so these treats cost me nothing and they’re all the more special because they were gifts sent with love.
