And I realized I didn’t leave any book titles. I don’t really remember specific titles about general parenting (pregnancy, sleep training, general newborn care is another story since I mostly bought those books), but don’t forget to do some searching on lds.org for old Ensign articles and conference talks. They give a different perspective than you can find in most of the books out there.

I agree with A1.

After all the years of child development classes at BYU and then teaching preschool and kindergarten for 3 years, I felt like I should know what I’m doing. But you never 100% know for sure what’s the “right” answer for every situation.

That’s when you call your mom, the pediatrician–can I just say how much I love having a doctor for a brother!, an old roomie , and pray your little heart out that what you decided to do was the right thing.

And I’m thinking we missed out on some top notch billboards by not moving to Kansas. Sure we have billboards here in Vegas, but I don’t think I’ve seen one talking about religion in the traditional sense anyways.

So, why are you suddenly doing a study on parenting? Did you see some things this past week that you DIDN’T want to do?

Books are nice, but you can only prepare so much with those. You just have to jump in there, and then buy a book or call your sister or brother for advice that probably won’t work for you…

Man, if I wasn’t already married to you, I’d really want to be. The only thing that made that awful drive bearable was to have you right there with me…
