And Baby Makes Three - November Edition
Have you ever really looked at a pomegranate? It is a fruit made of thousands of small seeds in one ball. When the fruit is ripe, it bursts and scatters seeds everywhere. It is a good reminder of our role as parents because we can scatter the seeds of our heritages, faiths, and traditions to our children.

If you haven't already, now is the time to star planning for Advent. We believe it is a time of slowing down, a time of preparation and a time of anticipation. Both of you share with your children your feelings as you waited for them to be born or if adopted, waited for them to come and join your family.

Write down things that the two of you seem to continually procrastinate doing. Discuss the effect this behavior has on your family as a whole. Make plans together to eliminate procrastinating on one item.
