"Mom had asked her to tidy up her toys, and she turned to me to help. At that moment, I was caught up in my own world, and without much thought, I shrugged and told her that since I hadn't played with the toys, it was her responsibility to pick them up. She didn't say a word and just started putting things away.

All of a sudden, a shout echoed from another room – it was my wife. She called out, 'Kai, you know, you can lend a hand even if you didn't create the mess.' Those words hit me like a lightning bolt, jolting me out of my self-absorbed reverie. With a newfound vigor, I jumped in to help with the tidying.

When we finally finished, I returned to what I was engrossed in before. Unexpectedly, my wife handed her a marshmallow as a reward. But what happened next truly caught me off guard. She strolled right up to me, took a bite out of the marshmallow, and then handed me the other half, saying, 'Here, Dad, Dadda helped Kaiah.'

In that instant, I felt a rush of emotions – a mixture of shattered pride and genuine remorse. Who would've thought that such a simple gesture could be so powerful? My two-year-old had just handed me a slice of humble pie, and boy, did she drive home a lesson I won't forget."

A powerful lesson for us about the significance of considering your actions before taking them.

"Own your choices. Don't feel ashamed about what you're doing, trust yourself that you're a good parent, don't let anybody else shame you, and, certainly, don't shame yourself -Valerie Jarrett"

In your day be courageous, confident, and curious.
