Helping Parents Succeed
Last Sunday, after we finished our monthly hiking, we went to a small town nearby to have dinner. We were joined in by another family. J and K were having a fantastic moment.
I would expect them to doze off in the car on the way home after dinner since it was a hot and tiring day. Apparently that’s not how it turned out to be.

I just read an article written by one of my favorite authors. I always like the simplicity in his articles.
This one is no exception. Not only is the article short and simple but it really speaks to my heart. While reading, sentence by sentence, it hit me like a fast moving train.
Why?
What he said in the article resonates with me so well that I wanted to share with you. As with Leo Babauta, this is what I aspire to be as a parent too.
These are simple pointers but it takes a lifetime to master. By doing so, you free yourself from unnecessary stress and worries. This is the way how parents should be, naturally. [Read more…]
