The Life Giving Parent

This evening the family sat down and planned out our year. We looked into our Google Calendars and put in all our important dates and made some plans and goals. Our childrens’ days are numbered and we only have them a short time in their lives. What we do now will shape who they are for the rest of their lives. Did you know that you have 10 years in a child’s life that you can influence who they are. That is 4-14 years old. I have been reading the book, The Life Giving Parent. The book goes into detail about yearly planning and including your children in the planning. When you plan your days, you have more intention to complete them. There are so many times I have wanted to do something and it just didn’t happen. My chances are far more greater if it’s on the calendar. We planned things like vacations, budget meetings, date nights, date nights with the kids, Wednesday Family Nights, etc.. It was a great night. There were many laughs but also good conversations about goals and future plans.if you haven’t picked up this book it is a must! This evening the family sat down and planned out our year.
