~Family Perspective~

Jesus was worried about his disciples and he turned to prayer.
No matter how much time we spent trying to “guard and protect” our children,
each day they become less dependent on us and we must let go and let God.
Prayer and parenting go together.

~Marriage Moments~

(Mother’s Day) Of course if you are alive you were born of a mother.
Maybe you are also a mother to children of your own.
As you remember your own mother this week,
give gratitude for lessons learned
and to your beloved spouse who joins you in loving.

~Parenting Pointers~

Everyone has a mother. Many of us are mothers ourselves.
Your child will learn how to honor his/her mother
by watching how you honor yours.
Whether your own mother is alive or dead,
share with your child something you appreciate about your mother today.
