So both of my kids are back in school as of today and after spending WEEKS and WEEKS on pinterest looking for lunch ideas and getting them into the B2S bedtime routine I think I will honor kids this month with a book. I received the 5 Love Languages of kids at a parents group I attended about a year ago, I started reading it then with my schedule i had to stop so I purchased the audiobook so I could listen and learn as I edited my images. I read the first Love Language and it was a huge help in my marriage now this one is wonderful in helping me understand my kids.
So go, read or listen to it and get reconnected with your kid! We spend so much time trying to make sure out kids are well-rounded with academics and sports I think we forget that we need to connect with them on a deeper level so we can help them grow into mindful adults who know themselves. THAT is our job as parents. Learning who we are is not something we just figure out we need to be taught we need to be given the proper tools in order to be equipped for life and learn and how to love, and deal with the pressures of business, school, friends and family.
Yeah so that’s my rant for today. Go buy the book and then come back and thank me because it’s that good.
