A Parenting Strategy for 2023 – Monthly Guide

By |2023-01-16T11:38:53-07:00January 16th, 2023|Family Culture, Letters|

When we took our first parenting class, our kids were nearly 5 and 2 years old.  Since then, we never stopped revisiting and reinvesting in the practical parenting principles we learned. Initially we were completely overwhelmed with all the things we wanted/needed to implement with our boys.  We learned over the years that focusing on one or two concepts at a time was manageable and helped us to make the progress we desired with much [...]

The Spirit of Growth

Every other week the Howards, Shelly and Rich, and the Marrs, Lis and Dave, trade off writing a OneFamily Letter with the intent to nudge, influence, educate, support and, in small part, come alongside women and men who are hard at work in the job of life. On the whole, life can be…well, complicated. They don’t teach parenting, marriage, or being an adult in school. It is true that a small misconception of how “things [...]

“My husband and I have taken two classes from OneFamily this year. We were immediately put at ease in our Zoom class.  Our leaders were warm, friendly and had a wealth of knowledge with the subject matter. We also love the way they related to each other and support each other as they present the information. Recently, we had a situation with our extended family where we needed help processing. With some personalized coaching/mentoring, they [...]

Keys to Intentional Parenting

By |2022-12-17T19:04:22-07:00December 17th, 2022|Family Culture, Letters, Parenting, Uncategorized|

Sometimes we can feel like we are winging it as parents.  The demands and pressure of life can get so overwhelming that we can get sidetracked from those meaningful things our hearts desire - like being a good intentional parent.  In desperation, when we often look for the one thing or a quick online resource to help us to put a “Band-Aid” on whatever issue of the day we’re dealing with in the moment.  All [...]

A successful parenting journey requires consistency, patience and resolve.  Yet the journey is often filled with frustration, anxiety and, at times, hopelessness even when we are trying to do our best.  Thankfully, there are those moments that can unexpectantly encourage and sustain us in the process! Recently, we were blessed to see a heartwarming story on social media from friends and OneFamily leaders.  This story is a wonderful example of one of those unexpected moments [...]

When our boys were about 6 and 4 years old we began a new family tradition that helped us engage in meaningful conversations with them.  Little did we know how this tool would create many wonderful memories, help us communicate more effectively with our kids and take our parenting efforts and relationships with each of them to a higher level! As we head into Christmas and the New Year, we are excited to share that [...]

You are teaching your children how to be – to act, to speak, to think.   For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he. - Proverbs 23:7 As a Man Thinketh  - James Allen Let no corrupt communication proceed from your mouth but that which is edifying and ministers grace to the hearer. - Ephesians 4:29   We are programmable biologically to where the brain gets wired differently when we are bathed in [...]
