Mine for that sitting, without much thought….

-invest time, don’t just spend time
-scream when you want to, excited, scared, frustrated, mad….as loud as you can.

Just thought I’d share your inspired dinner conversation last night.
I’m telling you, family dinner! May be one of the most important things in parenting! keeping the channels open. Thinking of friends and family
And having good friends to inspire thoughtful conversation!
Parents! Ask your kids what their rules to live by are and post them in the comment section below!
