Put Your Family Above Your Work And Yourself

We're back after a short break. Hope you had a wonderful parenting experience over the holidays. Now that school has started back, life just got busy again. We hope that these parenting suggestions will help you to keep focus of the importance and joy of raising your children well.

When we get to the end of our lives we’re probably not going to say that we wish we would have spent longer hours at work, had more money to buy more things or wish we could’ve been busier people. We’ll most likely say that we wish we had had more time with the people we loved. Not to say that our jobs and careers are not important, they are, but we have to be sure we're putting first things first. This time in our lives when we are raising our children can often feel busy and overwhelming, and we can be in danger of wishing it away. But we must remember we only have a small window of opportunity to impact the lives of our children. It is a precious time that we don’t want to miss. And when that opportunity is gone we’ll probably wish it were back.
