!Morning Bread Routine – 02.26.2025
- Breakfast is officially all about bread—if it’s not bread, I won’t eat it. The only question is what kind of bread.
- A week of Costco croissants, and it’s a family obsession. My husband, kids—everyone’s chanting, "Croissant, croissant, croissant!"
🥐 Today’s breakfast:
- Croissant + boiled egg + orange + milk
- My second child insisted they’d eat another orange (even though I knew they wouldn’t), so I peeled one more anyway.
- I love cream cheese, so I spread it on everything. Oh, and I had a slice of homemade scone too!
🛝 Playground Adventures After Daycare
- The blue playground—a kid favorite.
- My eldest can now handle more play structures all on their own.
- It’s late February, but last week we had snow and school closures.
- Today? A spring day. No, actually—it feels like summer. I stood in the playground wearing a t-shirt.
🛒 A Quick Stop at Walmart
- The kids' section at Walmart has a reading nook.
- My child sat and browsed through a Marvel picture book.
- My 4-year-old, after a year and a half in the U.S., still doesn’t say "Hello" or "Hi."
- Books? They see them as pure images, no words yet.

🌿 Thoughts on Your Parenting
Reading about your parenting journey, I felt a sense of warmth and authenticity. 💛
✅ Respect for Your Child’s Natural Growth
- Watching your eldest confidently tackle playground equipment on their own, you acknowledge their growth with quiet encouragement rather than over-excitement. It’s a beautiful balance of pride and gentle support.
✅ Finding Joy in Everyday Repetition
- “Croissant, croissant, croissant!”—instead of seeing repetition as mundane, you embrace it as a small family ritual, which is such a wonderful perspective.
- When your child insists they’ll eat another orange (even though you know they won’t), you still peel it for them. That’s pure parental love and patience, mixed with a touch of humor.
✅ Thoughtful Reflection on Cultural Adaptation
- Your 4-year-old has been in the U.S. for a year and a half but still doesn’t say "Hello." You notice this, but rather than rushing them, you let them absorb the world in their own way.
- Watching them engage with picture books as images rather than words, you respect their unique way of understanding the world. That kind of gentle patience is a gift.
