Hey guys! I guess I better post this month since this is a topic I'm super interested in.
What do you do with your child(ren) that you would consider moving them in a forward direction (rather than backward or just not moving).? Sorry if that was confusing. Let me explain what I'm trying to say...
When I teach Vidalia how to play her violin or about saying please and thank you when she wants things, I feel like we move in a forward direction.
When I dislike what Vidalia is doing (i.e. pulling my hair) and I tell her to stop or say no without explaining to her why, I feel like we move in a backward direction.
I can't think of anything that I wouldn't consider either moving forward or backward, so forget the not moving.
I feel like when I do small things that make me a better person, they help Vidalia to become a better person as well. So, what I'm asking, I suppose, is what is it you do that betters your family?
One of my favorite things to do is learn about what other families do, how they function and then evaluate how those same things would or wouldn't work for my family...so if you have a little time, please share with me (in September or next February or anytime).
Oh and p.s. we are officially in Orem now. Although we will probably move again within a month. We move way too much.
