Rainy Days and Hurricanes – Take Advantage of Quality Time with Family
-
you remember when you were a kid? And the weather forecast said it was going to be a huge snowstorm? What Was the first thing that came into your mind? No school? Playing outside? Sledding down the hill? As parents, our thoughts go elsewhere. We think about work, we think about not being able to get out to the supermarket, we think about shoveling the driveway… Things like that. The one thing that typically happens though is that these days, the days that try our patience, are often the most memorable days of our lives. It just so happens that today we are in the crosshairs of one of the largest storms ever to hit the East Coast… At least during my lifetime. Hurricane Irene is scheduled to make landfall in about 18 hours and the one thing that comes to mind for me is the fact that my kids( who are grown now) are fortunately in town. Having my kids home and a storm on the way reminds me that these times when the luxuries of everyday home life could possibly be taken away, should be looked at as opportunity to reconnect with your family. During those snowstorms that I mentioned earlier, we would often have great family times together. During hurricanes, there’s a good chance that power could be lost. So why not take the opportunity to spend quality time with your kids when there’s no TV, no iPhone, and no computer to get in the way of forging relationships that are sometimes forgotten during the course of life.
