We’ll also talk about if it’s ever ok to push our kids...

We've been feeling the need for a conversation on our summer expectations for our families and how we're letting summer just be what it wants to be. We came into this summer with ideas and plans and routines and rules for our kids. We talk honestly about how summer has turned out differently than what we expected and how that's okay. We  hope this resonates with you!
