Hi Minti

Comment Published at 20:0420:049 comments9 comments118 Visits118 VisitsReport

Well its been a while since I have been in, Ive been very busy with my family doing lots of fun things.

The kids and I are in a number of groups now in the 'real world'. Ive been trying to limit the amount of time I spend online because ultimately my internet addiction has started to get in the way of my family.

Ive had a real wakeup call lately, and am in the process of prioritising lots of different things in my life.

The groups that we are in now are amazing. It's changed us so much as people and we have really grown.

Nathen's confidence has picked up heaps, and so has his reading.

Jaryd and Xavier go to a singing and dancing group now which we love, and go to playgroup and many other social activities. My god have they grown up in the last 6mths since I started changing everything.

Anyway, that's all for me for now, Im about to leave for singing.

But before I go, I wanted to share something with you all that really made me think. I saw it on Doctor Phil just now.

He said, we do not raise children, we raise adults. Everything you do today will ultimately affect and influence your children and the adults they become. Make your decisions wisely, and always have your children in the back of your mind when making decisions in your day to day life.

I hope you've all been well,

Love Mony.

It is very true that we are raising adults, not children, though I think we forget that sometimes. 

Glad you are busy.  Must be a lot of fun going to all those groups and seeing how much your boys enjoy them.
