Day 3,369

Growth:

Take time to focus on and grow relationships. The more we invest in getting to know others the more it comes back around to us. Today I was reminded in several different situations of the importance of having trusting relationships.

Appreciation:

Gavin had an appointment with his guidance counselor and us to start prepping for his senior year as of for college after that. So tempting as a dad to want to step in and speak up for him, so rewarding when I don’t and I get to see a whole new side of him as a young adult. I am so grateful and appreciative for the person he continues to grow into! Sometimes I need a change of setting like that to see everything a little more clearly.

Presence:

Sitting in the kitchen and in the living room with Dominic and Caitlyn, talking about nothing and everything all at once. Talking with Gavin in his room walking through his day, hearing about classes and lifting and his volunteer hours. All priceless moments of clarity and presence.

Thanks!!!
