Main topic:
Eight Reasons Families Are Important:
- Source of Joy and friendship
- Classroom- where each participant learns and teaches love and service
- Belonging- they are your original tribe
- Honesty- to a fault
- Forgive- we are all in the same boat
- Generosity
- Communication- modeling and safety
- Responsibility- we all pitch in
My family is awesome- we have ups, we have downs and I am sure this week with all of us hanging out together it may get a little crowded and tense at times but we love each other.
Quote of the week: “We put our love where we put our labor.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson
