Today is another day of taking care of the kids. In the evening, I accompanied them to choose a Mother's Day gift for their mom. It's tiring but joyful!

Being with the kids feels more and more like a long-lasting practice.

The various issues that arise while accompanying them—about science, about life, about ideals, about everything in the world—if you take the time to experience them, you'll feel perspectives you never considered before. It's not just the kids who are growing up; adults are also being reshaped.

This morning, he didn't want to change clothes and said he liked the one from yesterday. We had a heated negotiation about whether he could wear that T-shirt again if it was dirty. In the end, I was persuaded by him and respected his opinion.

During breakfast, he suddenly asked me, "Why can the sun find our house every day?"

While checking my phone, I tried to explain the Earth's rotation, but he looked at me with disdain: "Isn't the sun tired?"

At noon, he insisted on assembling Lego by himself, even if it fell all over the place, and wouldn't let me help: "This is my task; you don't understand!"

In the afternoon, when we went out, he seriously studied the route of an ant moving its home by the flower bed in our community. After squatting for ten minutes, he said earnestly, "It must be moving to find its wife."

I couldn't help but laugh quietly, thinking how romantic that was.

In the evening, while choosing gifts, we weighed the price against the value repeatedly. You could see the kids' heartfelt expressions and emotional changes.

Just before falling asleep, we were still arguing about "whether dinosaurs can go in the elevator"…

Sometimes it's laughable, but often it's deeply moving—

He expresses the logic of the world in his innocent language, while I strive to be someone who doesn't rush to correct him but first understands him.

I often remind myself: being with children is not about discipline, but about companionship. So I set a "three-step method" for myself: empathize with him, acknowledge him, and inspire him.

Empathy allows the child to feel understood, acknowledgment helps the child develop confidence, and inspiration enables the child to achieve self-growth, self-reflection, and intrinsic motivation.

True guidance begins with understanding, grows with trust, and is achieved through growth. Therefore, the ultimate secret to raising kids is not to make them obedient, but to become someone "worth imitating."

For every bit we grow, the child suffers one less misunderstanding; for every inch we stabilize, the child gains a bit more security.

So we must continue to grow ourselves to truly support the life we are entrusted with!
