"Listening" to Your Limits

I usually don’t know what will strike me enough to write about it until the post starts coming out on paper. Apparently, the listening theme I started this week is still speaking to me – and I’m listening! (ha ha, I know, that was bad) – so I’ve decided to continue with it today.

The idea of “listening” to our limits is not a new one. In fact, this is something that busy parents (and others too) grapple with on a regular basis.

So, what does it mean to listen to our limits?

Anna goes & goes until her limits catch up with her!

Listen Up! A Preview of Coming Attractions.

This week, a listening theme is developing in my posts.  It just happened randomly, but I'm going to go with it!

Yesterday, we discussed the importance of listening to our words and tones so that we can send the right messages to our kids.  Today, we talked about how listening to our kids is so important too. Tomorrow, we'll delve into a different kind of listening.
