Family Time- Make it Happen!!!

Time spent with family can never be enough for those of us who work a “9 to 5” it can be quite a challenge, but challenges were created to be conquered! You may ask, how do I find time to go on a vacation with my family or simply have quality time when I...?

• Work Full-time
• Go to School Full-time
• Workout Full-time
• Have a lot on my agenda
• Work a 2^nd Job in addition to one or all of which is mentioned above 

Listed below is a few things we do in spending quality time:

1.       Game night *if you have children/child play games that incorporate their participation*

·         Monkey in the Middle (http://youtu.be/Fhr4KpZzdQ0)

·         Lego’s or building blocks and singing (http://youtu.be/yjACAsNy0fI)

*There are so many others just remember to make it fun (Google.com)*

2.       Movie night

3.       Cooking and having dinner together every evening (if this is not possible because schedule may conflict try breakfast even if it means waking up a little earlier)

 * WRONG OUTLOOK:  If my boss required me to come in earlier I would, but if my family wants me to wake up earlier to have breakfast or pray together I  can’t be bothered. In addition that would take away from my extra sleep for WORK (if this is you, this is the WRONG MINDSET).

IF YOU CAN WAKE UP EARLY TO GO TO WORK THEN YOU CAN WAKE UP EARLY TO SPEND SOME QUALITY TIME WITH THE ONES YOU LOVE*

4.       Reading Time (Bible story, favorite children book etc…)

5.       Sports Day (work out together it can be as little as 15 – 30 minutes)

6.       Take a mini vacation with your family.

7.       Go to the beach or a day at the park

You work hard so treat yourself and most importantly treat your family they deserve it as much as you do!As for me and my family we had a blast in Orlando this weekend!!! Quality time spent with my lovely husband and daughter PRICELESS!!! LOVE THEM!
