Live the same

confessions

Parenthood isn't always easy yet it brings so much joy as well.

I have two sons and they are 4 years apart. The oldest is 10, the youngest 6. They struggle sometimes with jealousy, especially when it comes to the attention given to them. I try to do most things with both of them, however the little one needs a bit more attention and then the oldest in envious. Same goes the other way round when I plan to do something with the oldest that the youngest can't join (no matter the reason) and then he feels abandoned. In my mind (and experience) such is life, life isn't fair and they might better learn that rather sooner than later. And in all its unfairness we try to do the best.

Something else I realised recently is that they will become far better than me in almost everything I teach them because they started so early. FUn fact: there's also still a small competitive child inside of me that wants to still be better 😆 😆 

But there also lies the joy, seeing your kids grow up and excel in something.

I know you only have one daughter :-)

6 is a wonderful age, I'm having so much fun and laughs with our youngest (he's also 6). It's a true pleasure.

How great, Erik, that you can share so many things with them. And I hope they can always remember all these moments with you.

I only have one daughter, my little Zoe, who's 6 now!
