Have you ever felt like you and your child were speaking to each other in an entirely different “language”…in English…face to face? Who hasn’t! Do you know who our children try the hardest to please yet believe they fail the most? Who influences a child more: peers or parents? Please join us as we discover what our children – no matter the age – truly want from us, their parents, as they travel from tiny to teen and beyond. And learn the number two thing you can do for your children that will make an impression on them for life! (Of course number one is prayer!)

In August of 2005, I was instantly and unceremoniously initiated into the club known as “Widowhood.” No one asked me if I wanted to join. No one asked my permission to place my membership with this club. No one explained what would happen once I became a member. The clubhouse door was opened and I was thrown into a world unlike any other I had ever experienced. No explanation. No instructions. No encouragement.

My heart tells me that there has to be something positive that comes from being a member of this club. Are you a member who is struggling on this journey? Are you a friend who wants to help but are unsure of what to say or do? Please join me as we discover that there is help, hope and healing for each of us as we travel on this unfamiliar path of living with loss.
