Let's talk!

With our oh so busy schedules, there is less and less time to connect as family - especially with our kids.  Take time at dinner to reconnect in a meaningful fun way!

Start by making a question jar.  Fill it with interesting questions to talk about at mealtime.  Let everyone pull a question out of the jar to answer. Make up questions on your own or you can go to this site for some suggestions to get you started!

Another idea from Focus on the Family is Family Mealtime Devotionals.  They have several categories such as Faith and Trust, Building Character and Following Jesus. The index card sized devotionals can be printed out and discussed over your meal. There are over 50 available!

Let us know if you use any of these ideas and what worked for you.  If you have more ideas on how to come together at the dinner table - please share by leaving a comment.  Start a new tradition this weekend.  Who knows what you might discover about each other.

Get talking and Bon Appetit!

Start a perpetual journal!

Perpetual JournalHave you started a journal time and time again and each time thinking you needed a new journal to start fresh?  This could be an answer for you - begin a perpetual journal!  You can make these inexpensively with just a recipe box and some index cards.  Have a card for each day of the year and make one entry each day.  It could be a special memory, something you are thankful for, or what God did in your life that day. As the years go on you will be able to see how God has been working in your life and what special things he has done! Don't worry if you didn't start this on January 1st - the beauty of this journal is that it just continues on and on. Even if you miss a few days, you can pick it back up at anytime! No need to find a new journal ;)  Click on the pics for more information on how to make one of these pretty journals or be creative and make one up on your own!

 

     Happy Journaling!

As I was making mine last evening the thought occurred to me that it is just as easy to make several at the same time! They would make wonderful gifts. I thought it would be a great gift for a new mom! So often there is little time to write those precious moments that happen with our children, but one sentence a day could make for a treasure in years to come! I have some babies & a new mommy who might just get one :)
