"Child is father to the man," as William Wordsworth put it. Congratulations to all three (+? :) of you!

I'm in the EU, and in my country, this book by Anna Wahlgren gets sometimes suggested: https://www.amazon.com/Love-Children-Childcare-Child-Rearing...

Definitely an "opinionated" book (the author had nine children and was married seven(!) times), but also an honest one. 700+ pages, of which I remember only one quote: "Just being there is enough." That quote has helped me many times when parenting has caused mental doubt.

Maria Montessori's books are also heartly recommended.

I've heard Montessori before, and it seems like her approach aligns well with our interests. All the books sounds intriguing, I will take a look into them :)

Thanks again for your recommendations.
