Parenting and New Year’s Resolutions
My oldest child will graduate from high school this year. How in the world did that happen? Wasn’t I just at the hospital delivering him, taking him to kindergarten, watching his eyes light up with excitement on Christmas morning? Now he’s a senior in high school. Wow…
On reflection, I did a lot of parenting things right, but did I make some mistakes? Absolutely!
Parenting is a lot of trial and error. A lot of figuring it out along the way. And guess what? Your children are trying to figure it out too!
Here are my 5 New Year’s Resolutions for this parenting thing!
- Keep them safe.
- Teach them to be kind.
- Set high standards, but love unconditionally.
- Encourage them.
- Have the time you spend with them be the best part of their day!
Be blessed!
