Are there moments in the year, in your life, or in the life of your family that continue to come back and you late and are a reminder things to come?
For me, one of these memories has always been the return of Robins to our yard into a local community. Being from Michigan, the state bird, the Robin, is not only a beautiful bird but it also is a sign of spring, a sign of renewal, and of things to come.
This symbol for me also is a memory, because I grew up always watching for this bird with my parents and now I do with my own daughters. Memories are so important and building memories with your kids is even more important.
The strange thing about building memories is that many times, the memories that you are hoping to build are not the ones that your kids will come back to you time and time again. Many times, the memories that resonate are the small moments, and moments where you spend time out of your day, the one on one time that you have with them that they remember most.
It’s strange, our time with our kids is fleeting and we have fathers do everything that we can to create safe, loving environment for our kids and for our families. However, even though many of us feel like we have to hustle to do everything that we can to get by and to survive and thrive,. For our kids, it is not the hospital that they appreciate, it is the time, and the memories that are most important.
What memories have you created with your own kids? What memories do you want to create with your kids?
