Kids Spell Love T-I-M-E
By David Chadwick
If I had to give one piece of parenting advice, it would be this: Kids spell love T-I-M-E. They don’t need your presents. They need your presence.
Long after people have forgotten whether you were at that meeting, your kids will remember if you were present at their sporting event, birthday party, or that special school event.
And quality time equals quantity time. You don’t go to a restaurant and ask for a one-inch cubed steak. The waiter may respond, “But it’s quality!” You’ll respond, “But I want quality and quantity.”
The same is true with kids.
Regularly write your kids into your appointment calendar. If something threatens that time with your kids, say, “Sorry. I have another appointment.”
Your kids will be thrilled when you do it.
That’s because children spell love T-I-M-E.
Live in-tune with the heartbeat of God!
