Dinner Table Talk: Setting Up Our Summer for JOY

Navigating Joy Together

It is SUMMER!!!! School is out, activities and sports are done, now it is time to play and relax! How do we still make sure we read, limit screen time, not argue about the things that frustrate us, and use our time together to have FUN and create JOY?
Mark came up with three questions for us to think about at the beginning of June.
1. What do we want to for reading this summer?
2. What does screen time look like?
3. What is it that makes you frustrated that creates nagging, being nit picky, and creates negative energy.
We thought about these questions for two days and then we discussed them at one of our family meeting table talks.
We all came up with goals. Now that is is July 1st, it is time to revisit them. This episode shares our goals for each question and we reflect on our progress.
How do we alter our reading goals since NO ONE has read except Mom?
What will make it interesting?
How are we doing on our screen time and how can we adjust and get better?
Are we all following our agreements to eliminate the anger and frustration with the common problems that create JOY crushers?
This conversation is our normal table talk when we have our family discussions. There is a lot of laughter as we figure out what our next steps are to navigate JOY together!
