Teaching Our Kids That Calm Isn’t Boring — It’s Power

For a long time, I think I was bracing myself for chaos.

Not because it was constant—but because it used to be frequent. Big emotions. Fast reactions. Nervous systems on edge. Days where everything felt loud, even when the house was quiet.

So when things started to feel calmer… I didn’t notice right away.

There was no big moment.
No clear “we made it.”
No dramatic before-and-after.

Just… space.
