Today I’m grateful for inspiration, for confirmation, and for repentance.
I have been reading Parenting Without Power Struggles on my but ride and during my day at work I thought of a plan for dedicating my focus more fully to my family and to building relationships with each of my children. My plan was to spend 30 minutes each afternoon one on one with one of the kids so that each kid gets half an hour of my undivided attention every two weeks.
On the way home from work as I read the book I learned about the stages of relationship development I received confirmation of that plan in that the first stage is proximity aka time spent together. I feel like this part will allow me to be better connected with the kids and calm the waters at home.
