Start Talking

The most effective way to build a relationship is by actually communicating! I know that most people think its impossible to sit down to a meal together. This world is crazily out of control with all the things that just "have" to get done. Every single person in a family has their own list of things to do and schedules to be kept. If you can come together for 1 hour a day, it can change your life. Do you have to be a good cook? No. Do you have to have an extravagant meal? No. Can you just bring home take-out? Yes! As long as you are sitting together and TALKING, you can actually form a more meaningful relationship. Protect this time together from anything outside the walls of your home. Protect it from mean, hateful words. Protect it from gossip. Protect it from fights. This is the time for you to all sit together and truly enjoy the company.

I found this idea this week as I was browsing the internet and just love the idea. If you are having a hard time getting conversation started...here is a great way to start talking!
