Ideal Mother

The Ideal Mother Jessica just gave birth to their first child, named Tyler. She knew at that very moment, she wanted to be the best mother that she could. She started thinking back to when she was just a kid and some of the things that her wonderful mother taught her. Even as a child, she knew that her mom dedicated all her time to her family.

Jessica’s mother, Mona, made her feel warm and safe with her hugs. Jessica knew she wanted to make her son feel the same way that she did as a child. Being patient is also another way to show that she cares about her son. When he was up crying for several hours, she had to be patient and find out what was upsetting her baby boy. Sometimes, he isn’t hungry, wet, or tired; he just wants to be held close to his mom and to be soothed. In addition to a comforting home, it also needs to be safe. To provide a safe home, Jessica and her husband, Brad, baby proofed their home with plastic covers over the electric outlets. Next, they installed cabinet locks and door knob covers.
