WHERE DID THE TIME GO!

It seems like yesterday.

Especially when you get to the time I am now, when all your kids have grown and left home. 

It seems like it was yesterday when my kids were young, they were running around the house. 

The chaos, the nappy changes, the school runs, and the endless doctors’ visits, because of infections or illness, the weekly football games that I have to take them to and so on…

Now my kids have finished primary, they have finished secondary and they have  finished university. They’ve all started working. 

And all of those things were the different seasons of life.

Nowadays most of us parents are doing so much and we are so overwhelmed. 

But the only thing at the end of it all, when you are where I am now and you look back is that if you are not intentional that time will pass

The season of life will come and it will end.

The only thing that will remain is the remnant of what you invested during that season. 

So what are you investing in? 

Are you being proactive or are you being reactive? 

Do you have a plan? 

Do you have a vision for your family? 

Remember if you don’t have a goal for your children or your family you are just leaving things to chance and that’s not good!

If you haven’t started yet, start today. 

Write down a goal for your family!

For example: 

  1. Which school do you want your kids to attend
  2. Which area would you like to raise your kids
  3. And make a plan on how you are going to achieve this! 

Stop doing things because everyone is doing it. You know your child best.

So what future are you creating today for yourself and your family?

What future are you building, or are you just going along with whatever life brings your way? 

Be intentional

Well done Mama and Baba ❤️❤️

I’m rooting for you ❤️❤️
