Choices

When our family finished our Sabbatical time last summer, Kiley and I took some time to talk about what we learned and what changes we might need to put into effect in our family life. 

As I've reviewed some of those commitments recently, I've come to realize that we've slipped away from some of those healthy changes. It's time to step up and re-invest in some of those commitments.

Confession time...one of the hardest ones for me is to make myself more fully available during the "peak" relational times for our family. This means leaving the computer in the bag and not continuing to deal with e-mails and issues during the times of potential peak family time each day. For a techy like me, that's a challenging discipline. :-) And...for a person with my guilt-driven work ethic, it's going to take me a while to just "let it be."
