Dinners have been a bit stressful lately… by 5 PM, I’m exhausted, overstimulated, and sometimes overwhelmed. I know these days are fleeting, so I’ve been praying for extra patience before we sit down to eat. To make dinners more enjoyable for Madison, we’ve started sharing our highs and lows of the day and engaging her in more conversations. It’s made such a difference—now she asks every single night to share her highs and lows!
