June 30, 2014

Sometimes life can zip by with all of the busyness of our everyday routine.  As a family, we can end up living separate lives though we sleep under the same roof.  

Traditions are a fun way to encourage closeness and fellowship within your family. Holidays, like the Fourth of July, are a great time to start and enjoy family traditions. 

As life tries to keep us busy and disconnected from our kids, take time to find ways to keep your family close. Start a new tradition this summer!
