Time for our August Meal Plan! My life is so much easier when I plan my dinner menus out a month at a time. This time I had some help from my hubby, giving me suggestions. I know making family dinner a priority is helping to build a stronger family. It is such a treat to visit with my kids, with no screens. This past month we started asking our kids about their failures and mistakes they made. It has been great to have these teaching moments with our children. There are always lessons to be learned when failure happens. Our normal question is “What was your favorite thing today?” or “Who did you help today?”. We are trying to encourage the children to ask us those questions too! I know this will help them to be more thoughtful of others.
