I am so thankful for this thread - I am still learning to be a gentle mama. Some days I do really well and some days I don't and this forum is so great to have! I know I want to be a gentle mama, but I don't always know how to explain what my goal is or how it should look. I've realized we have a big need for a comfort corner in our new home and I am pleased to see so many examples. Thanks for the help!! And Crystal -your analogies are so good! Thanks!
