We definitely don't have all the answers, and we're the first to admit that these opinions could change as Duke grows. Our hope isn't to convince anyone that our way is the only way, but to have an honest conversation about what we're wrestling through, what we've learned from our own childhoods, and why we believe parenting starts with grace, communication, and pointing our kids to Jesus. We also chat about my new Ponyflo hat collection (finally!!), screen time, and why parenting has made us apologize to every parent we ever judged. 😂 ‼️Check out my colab with Ponyflo!
