Day 24 of the 28 Days of Self Love Challenge
Today’s Challenge is to spend 15 minutes with each family member. Bond with each other – laugh, talk and just chill out!
It’s surprising how many people can live together, under the same roof for years together and yet know so little about each other. Blame it on social media, blame it on the changing times, but the truth is that many families are together and yet so apart. 🙁
I enjoy spending time with my family, which is why I quit my job to be a stay at home mom. But that doesn’t make me perfect. I still struggle to give each member of my family individual attention. Whether you are a SAHM or a WFHM or a working mom – it’s a struggle.
This doesn’t make us bad people or bad moms. We just need to find a balance and that is easier said than done. I spend so much of time with my kids, but giving them individual attention is a struggle when they both want to be seen and heard at the same time! It makes me wish I had 2 heads! :)) …And oh! Don’t forget the husbands – they need the most attention of all!!
Knowing that today’s challenge wasn’t going to be easy, I came up with a plan. While my little girl was out playing with our neighbour, I will spent time doing some crafts and drawing with my boy. And later in the evening, when he son was out cycling, I spent time playing with my 3 year old. It was great fun.
Finally, once the kids were in bed, hubby and I spent some time together just chatting and talking. We usually complete other chores or watch TV together once the kids are in bed. But just sitting and talking about stuff is a much better way to connect.
