When my son was four, I felt completely overwhelmed by his toys. Trying to organize them was painful, and I didn’t handle it well.
When I started to think in terms of "What does he need to learn here?", "How can I support him?" "Can I be warm and supportive while also resolving the clutter?"
Now I can see that I was the one who needed to learn and grow first.

That’s the best part about parenting when we realize our children are helping us grow!
