03:31
[Music]
03:35
yeah so making sure everyone feels cared
03:36
for um
03:38
looks like a lot oozy to be a part of
03:40
like making lunch right um
03:42
the other day the kids went to school
03:44
and uzi was very upset that he was left
03:46
out and
03:49
he was pretty sad you know he cried he
03:51
got upset but
03:52
the cool thing is he can be a part of
03:53
like helping make lunch you know um and
03:56
that means that he’s a part of the
03:57
process and helping the kids get out of
03:59
school too
04:00
uh so
04:01
yeah man like
04:04
i think you know
04:07
we can get really guilty right as
04:08
parents and just trying to make sure
04:10
we’re doing the best that we can
04:14
but i just think there’s something
04:15
valuable about
04:16
knowing that you’re not gonna always get
04:18
it right you know um but you’re always
04:20
trying you know and i think sometimes
04:22
the attempt is just important as the
04:24
intention you know
04:26
um and we’re not always gonna get it
04:28
right you know but
04:30
everybody is valuable in the home and as
04:32
long as they’re feeling careful i think
04:33
we’re hitting the mark
04:36
like
04:38
i believe like families foundation you
04:40
know what i’m saying making sure
04:41
everyone feels cared for is you know
04:43
super important because you know
04:45
sometimes kids feel left out you know
04:47
when
04:48
theo and uriah and i are going off to
04:50
school he vets back to work i am back to
04:53
work
04:54
uzi is sometimes can feel left out
04:57
sometimes the knife feels left out
04:58
because our schoolwork isn’t as
04:59
demanding um
05:01
but you know we try to make sure they
05:03
feel a part of the family in whatever
05:06
role they are
05:07
it is very hard and difficult sometimes
05:10
because as a parent i think you’re
05:12
always thinking that you can be doing
05:13
better but you’re not necessarily
05:15
patting yourself on the back on the
05:16
things that you’re doing well and um the
05:18
truth is
05:20
chances are you’re killing it you know
05:21
and so it’s important to have grace with
05:23
yourself um
05:25
and even so like knowing that like yeah
05:28
i’m caring for the family and everyone
05:29
is feeling cared for but i’m also caring
05:31
for myself you know so that means you
05:33
know taking the time that you need and
05:34
taking a break when you need it um and
05:37
be getting stuff like this done
05:38
uh you know is super important and super
05:41
helpful for everybody
