We live in an age of the quick and now. Don’t know the answer to something? Ask Siri or Alexa. Our children see that just about anything can be ordered or answered in an instant, so it is with intentionality that we need to teach patience in an age of impatience.
Kindness requires a habitual check-in with our heart, otherwise our days could easily be filled with angry commands, insensitive jokes, snarky remarks, and selfish actions.
Parenting with goodness is being passionate about integrity. There has to be something more than, “Because Mom said so,” to direct our decisions.
This year we are going to look at what it means to parent with character and how to be passionate about the things that matter and last. It is never too late to start something good or end something bad. At the end of the day, your children will remember how you finish, so we want to encourage you to finish well.
