1. I agree that gratitude is the secret to a joyful heart in all situations. We need to be reminded of this often, so thank you.
2. I constantly remind myself that our time with our kids is limited and is flying by. So even when it is 98 degrees outside, I still push myself to throw batting practice to my son. It’s always worth it.
The moment that changed how I thought about time was when my daughters, 6 and 7 at the time, had a swim meet in the middle of a workday and I decided that I would not miss those moments with them ever. It marked a turn in my approach to family life and work
Now that we have grandchildren, our Sundays are centered around gathering the family for lunch after Mass; it is the most wonderful tradition that we can create for them.
A couple thoughts:

Gracias Chris,
