One of the most difficult aspects of parenting is making quality experiences happen between all of the daily living that has to take place. This is the time of year where the novelty of the new school year has worn off and we're just trying to make it through the week. It all comes down to time, what we have time for, make time for and where we spend it. Having some good memories to look back on has been a key part of adolescence already with my sixth grader so I want that to be the way things go for his brothers too.
