life is so gosh darn mundane
the little to do's
the long have to's
the even longer should's
can drain the joy
right out of
everyday life
if we're not careful


life will pass us by
whether we're enjoying
- or not
our children
will grow up whether 
we love the time with them 
- or we dread the responsibility


you + your kids
deserve
the.very.best

to step into life
the joy of you
+
what you love


what is 1 thing
you love doing
{like a hobby or activity}
that you want to share
with your kids?


a #1 sweet thing
to serve
as a lighthouse
to bring your kids
joy + solace
their entire lives
to get them thru
the hard times 
+ 
love the moment 
no matter what


so this week
what's the 1 sweet thing
you want to do together
with your kids
to share in happiness
to enjoy the sweetness
of life


no matter what
​the mundane will
always be there
we have to consciously
create joy

you deserve it
+
so do your kids
{and if life is hard right now
you deserve this gift even more}
so this week
share a #1 sweet thing activity
with your kids
to celebrate
what you love 
about life

You Got This.

p.s. Here's my #1 sweet thing activity I share with my son: I want him to have a love of nature + hiking within him forever + ever. I dedicated 2018 to #getoutdoors -  and hiking most weekends. Yes, it seemed like "I didn't have time for this." But you know what I realized? Life is worth living when we make time for what we love. What's your #1 sweet thing to share with your children? I'm supporting you!

    Hi friends,  I write from the heart to tell my life story, and the story of those in my neighborhood called life. Research shows that our children's emotional & mental health is contingent upon us parents being able to tell our life story, or "coherent narrative."  This is my coherent narrative, my life story in the making, with some of what I love in life too. My goal is to share my life in a way that is real, uplifting & positive- sometimes serious, sometimes fun. In my practice, I inspire parents to empowerment through reclaiming our life stories and learning respectful discipline. My work is my offering to our children- our future. Wishing you all a happy family!
