amo a mi familia
This weekend things were getting rough… we’d all been together all week being sick at home. We needed some encouragement. So I instigated this:
I love my family! Max loves to learn new phrases in Spanish. When tensions were high, I would call out “Amo a mi familia” and a few would repeat it cheerfully (mostly just Max). I don’t know if it did much, but I know it helped me remember that the reason we serve and give and sacrifice for each other in our family is because of LOVE.

I’m sorry you’ve all been sick. That is so not fun with a houseful of little kids. Sigh…I do appreciate your desire for happy things and your talent of sharing the good and the bad, but still always sharing something positive!
