Recently we came across an article that launched a conversation for us. This post on Huffington Post explained why the author was choosing her kids over her husband. Really? We felt like we have read this argument before. Whether the mom chooses her kids or her husband or the dog or even her best friend, unless she is choosing a deserted tropical island, we call foul on any choosing at all. In our experience, the game of who do you love more is a game that nobody wins, and thus, another podcast was born.
Check out our latest podcast with these highlights:
1. We talk about some great marital advice from Jen Hatmaker’s book For the Love: Fighting for Grace in a World of Impossible Standards.
2. We discuss how it might actually be easier to put the kids first, but you can decide that one for yourself.
3. We talk about getting kids ready for college which we also talked about here and here and here.
4. We share about how impressed Erin’s son was when he saw her quoted on CNN.
5. We talk about how fathers are key to girls’ self-esteem.
The bottom line is that there is a lot to talk about here, so check it out by
clicking the link at the bottom of this post!
Thanks!
Erin and Ellen
