Teaching your children to care for another living creature is a lovely lesson in kindness, love, and responsibility💕. Feel free to write a special note to your furry creature, buy some special treats, or take your pet to their favorite play place ❤.

🔥🔥🔥🤣 We as parents put always our children first so sometimes it is ok not to share our secret pleasures 😉.

When your child whines, let him know that you cannot understand what he is saying. If he continues, ask him to try again using a calm voice. It may take a few days for your child’s behavior to change, but If you are consistent, then your child will be consistent as well.

So true! Parents are the ultimate role models for children. Every word, movement and action have an effect on them. Even if they are at an age when they are not talking, they are certainly listening.

[Roseanne Lesack @drlesack]

Here is an idea; surprise your children with a nice note in their lunchbox, go out for ice cream after school, or drop off canned goods at a food pantry✨. Encourage your children to do the same. Showing kindness to others is one of the nicest things we can do to ourselves 💕.

🤭 Sound familiar? Most of us have been in that situation and guess what? It is ok❗️ As much as we want to do it all we sometime can’t. Don’t worry because everything will be ok 💕. #BeenThereDoneThat

Sometimes children are right! What😳? We as parents are human and can sometimes be wrong (on occasion of course 😉!) When this happens, you should do what you would expect your children to do when they are wrong…apologize and learn from your mistake 💕

[Roseanne Lesack @drlesack]

Count your blessings✨. Parenting can be difficult but be thankful for their health, their spunk, and their beauty💕. If you are feeling particularly stressed, take the time to think of the 5 things you are grateful for🙏. It can help you refocus on the positives a 😊.

Being a parent means you have to parent🤔. This sometimes means making decisions for your children that they may disagree with. If you believe you know what is best for them in the bottom of your heart, then stick to your decisions💪.

[Roseanne Lesack @drlesack]

🤣Remember that being “the best mom you can be” doesn’t mean never taking a break. It means knowing when to take one! Allow some time for yourself and it will help you reset and set you up for a fresh start 💪.

As winter is winding down you should take the time to have fun with your favorite winter activities. Ice skating outside or biking while it’s cooler (down here in Florida🚵‍♂‍)! Enjoy what each season brings and make the most of winter while it’s still here❄.

[Roseanne Lesack @drlesack]

Couldn’t agree more! Children learn as much from us as we learn from them 💕

[Roseanne Lesack @drlesack]

It’s good to change things up sometimes and have fun mixing up new flavors 🙃. Have fun with your family this week by changing up breakfast one morning☀️. Try healthier options with fresh vegetables, different dips with fresh bread or even having a salad for breakfast.
