Thankful for a Quote, Listening to My Sons’ Music, & Engaging Family Conversation

Day 3,111

Growth:

Clear is kind, unclear is unkind.

Brené Brown

Appreciation:

There’s definitely more to this one than I’ll dive into today, but I would bet that it will be back in a bit once the rest has the opportunity to percolate.

I’m thankful do it taking the time to learn, listen to, and appreciate the music the boys listen to. Their tastes are quite unique and don’t always match my tastes, but through their songs I learn more about my sons. It provides another reason for conversation and has led to more than a small handful of deep conversations as a result.

They’ve expanded my musical horizons while simultaneously expanding our relationship.

Presence:

This evening Becky was making supper while I did dishes. Nothing crazy, but a wonderful opportunity to have undistracted conversation with the two of us.

Later in the evening Becky, Gavin, and I all hopped on FaceTime with Dominic and had an engaging conversation catching up on all the goings ons in our family. Nothing crazy, but a wonderful opportunity to have undistracted conversation with the four of us.

Those moments, both priceless.

Thanks!!!
