Revisiting Last Week’s Episode:
- What books/shows/articles have you read or seen that are challenging you lately?
- I’m rereading Brené Brown’s The Power of Vulnerability (and I’m not usually a re-reader!)
- Parenting insight that we can only love our kids as much as we love ourselves. Good gut punch!
Today’s Topic: Summer Jobs for the Kids
- Laminated, personalized kid chore charts on mini clipboards on the fridge
- One day of completed chores on chart earns the kid a saint coin from Happy Saints (kids keep track of own chores)
- Cash in 1 coin for 1 show (our solution to limiting screen time!)
- Bad behavior = saint coin gets taken away
I have some questions for YOU! Discussion Starter:
- What’s happening in your area to support couples preparing for marriage in the area of NFP? What about infertility? Or ongoing support for couples trying to space kiddos or who are feeling the burden of what I call uber fertility? I’m going to be meeting with a group of people who are forming a little think tank for our Diocese, and I’d like to get your input on what’s working, what’s not, and what kind of support you need in this area. I’ll be talking about this with an awesome guest on an upcoming episode, but I thought I’d pick your brain in the meantime.
