Yesterday’s Family Meeting was the best and the worst all at the same time. I was really excited for it! We had actually put a time on the calendar, I had a new idea I wanted to try out, and the kids seemed to be paying close attention during the sermon. We were going to nail our Family Meeting.
Until we didn’t.
Some of you have probably been wondering about the weekly updates (or lack thereof) for our Family Meetings. Well, I am going to ask you to refer to the tagline of this site, Our family’s journey to find faith and joy. (Emphasis on the word, journey.)
Like everyone else, we were busier and had more abbreviated Family Meetings lately. Some were held in the car; others, over dinner. Did we talk as a family? Absolutely. Were they effective? Not so much…
A few months ago, Brad and I decided to start having a weekly Family Meeting. One of the main reasons – at the beginning – was that I needed a way to get everyone on the same page for our weekly schedule. (Remember me – the ultimate planner?!?)
