Are you a social butterfly or a wallflower/introvert? Do your kids take after you and how does it affect your parenting?
If you’re comparing me to my husband, then I would have to say I am definitely a social butterfly. But, I can definitely tend to be shy at times and I need my alone time desperately or I’ll start to feel like I’m falling apart. As for our kids, they’re tough to nail down on that as well. I guess we’re just a family you can’t put in a box.But being that they are similar to me, it definitely helps me to understand and be just that much more patient with them.

Okay, I hate that word. Diet. I mostly like fun words, and Diet definitely doesn’t sound like fun. Now, if my kids were heading into an unhealthy weight or there were health issues involved, I would absolutely change and adjust their diets. Would I ever tell them they were on a diet??? Heck to the naw. Especially not in the culture we’re living in right now. Uh uh, no way. No eating disorders or body issues in this house caused by me.

I think the best way to share morals and values with your kids is more about leading by example than it is about lecturing them all the day long. We can tell our kids all their lives to live and believe a certain way, but if they don’t see us living it ourselves, it certainly won’t hold a lot of weight. So for us, we try to combine the two. Teach it, live it, and always allow them to ask questions throughout it all. Mostly we want them to one day believe and live those values not just because we do, but because they believe in it just as much.

My husband was just a friend for awhile before I ever considered dating him. But after my dad passed away, I began to see relationships in my life a little differently. And as all the traumatizing events began to unfold after his death, I noticed that Jimmy was there for me in a way that a lot of people just didn’t know how to be. And it all started that night on the cliffs overlooking the beach…
