Joy in the Waiting
As parents, I remember one of the most difficult things to teach our children was to WAIT. Learning how to wait takes discipline and it’s certainly not a virtue that comes naturally to us as human beings. Many times, we would use the waiting process as an opportunity to teach them a lesson. We would… Continue reading Joy in the Waiting
You Weren’t Created to Carry That Load
Back a few years ago, when our children were younger, we bought a pop-up camper and decided that we were destined to become “one happy camping family.” What better way to combine exploring the great outdoors with quality family bonding time, right?
