My philosophy on parenting is...

"Something I know will change, improve, and grow as I, myself, learn how to be the best parent I can be. I think about it a lot, but I know I want to approach parenting with a lot of mindfulness and love to catch myself when my patience starts to run thin and logic to help the child (and myself) understand things like consequences and even opportunities." - Carlos

My best friend would describe me as...

"genuine" - Ben
