To Mo and Will,
Wishing you all so much love and happiness as you embark on this beautiful phase of life with Little Miss Magpie. I am so very happy that you have finally achieved your dream of parenthood. Such a long and winding road! Nothing will ever be the same again, but you already know that.
I want to say so many things. Yet if I were to seek just one bit of parenting advice, it would be this: do what works for you. Like it or not, people will have advice about everything. Everyone and their mother will have their own ideas about how to do every little thing from feeding to sleeping to pacifiers and preschools and on and on. Read what you want, do your research, talk to people, ask questions, smile and nod when they tell you about The Way To Do Things. But in the end, just do what works for you. Often it's trial and error. Every baby is different. All that matters is what works for you and your family. Trust your instincts.
And remember, just when you think you've got it all figured out, she will change and grow and the next day will be different.
It's a most wonderful journey, filled with tremendous awe and wonder and yes, challenges. Enjoy every minute you can.
Much love,
Luna (and family)
