Listen "38. Seasons to Reap, Seasons to Sow"
Episode Synopsis
Today I’m sharing the story of a small miracle that taught me this important lesson:Parenting is like gardening. There are seasons of reaping and seasons of sowing. And just because you aren’t tasting good fruits right in this moment doesn’t mean that you aren’t being successful.Maybe the bitter moments are the greatest opportunities to sow seeds that will bear sweet fruit in the future.Resources Mentioned:Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn (and his other books)A Theory of Objectivist Parenting by Roslyn RossMagda GerberMaria MontessoriThe Montessori Toddler by Simone DaviesNo Bad Kids by Janet Lansbury (and her other books & resources)Scripture References:Ecclesiastes 3:1–3Doctrine & Covenants 6:33Galatians 6:9–10Alma 41:15Mark 4:26–27
