Take a walk. As simple as it sounds, I believe that this is one of the best ways to spend your time with your children of ANY age! That's probably because when I was in high school my mom & I would go walking every evening together. I really think its one of the main reasons that we stayed good friends all through those difficult teenage years. So that even when there were disagreements & I was being a snotty teenager we had a strong relationship to fall back on. I love my mom & am so grateful for that time we had together. Even today when one of us is visiting the other, we try to get out & go for walks -- weather permitting!
Wow Kim, that's really neat that you would do that with your mom, my mom and my little sister do that I think it is good for them both in different ways. I keep telling myself that I'm going to walk the kids to school... maybe that is something I should start doing.... thanks for the motivation
