Fresh Perspective

Because I am around the children the majority of the time I naturally feel like I often have a better understanding of a situation with them. I feel like I've been dealing with a specific issue with one of our kids for a while and if Seth comes in and begins to give me advice on how to deal with something, I don't always agree with his approach. However, I've found that his perspective has the benefit of not having been put through the emotional ringer all day, plus he is the only other person who understands my children like I do. So, even though some of his advice I might not initially think would work, I've found almost always does! I've learned to not even take Seth's suggestions lightly, because he is usually right!
