I do believe babies are born potty-trained. They're born knowing and are able to give subtle signals that become very prominent if you reinforce them.

I don't look like most women in the industry.

The level of communication you can achieve with an infant is really profound.

I'm big on my kids being conventionally polite, and it works really well for them.

I'm definitely on the spectrum of socially awkward.

I like army boots, I like peasant skirts - sometimes together! So I do know that I have odd taste.

Don't listen to anyone's advice. Listen to your baby ... There are so many books, doctors, and well-meaning friends and family. We like to say, 'You don't need a book. Your baby is a book. Just pick it up and read it.'
