The Magic of 168

 

What’s so special about the number 168? It’s the number of hours you have in a week.

What’s so magical about the number 936?  That’s the number of weekends you have left with your children before they turn 18… if they were born last week.

Now consider the number 6,570.  Yes, I know, it’s a BIG number… until you realize it’s the number of days until your child turns 18.  Doesn’t seem so big now, does it?

So, use this creative way for you and your child to keep track of how much more time you have left.  A great way to make the most of your time with your children is to talk to them.  Our Summer Talk Family Conversation Starters – straight out of this year’s Operation Summer—are a fun way to get the talking started.

So make the most of your time with your kids, because in reality, each day with our children is not a given, it’s a gift.

    I believe we should live in the moment with our kids, not feeling guilty if we arent spending enough time. There is never enough time! We should stop looking ahead to when they leave home and enjoy now. These numbers just make you depressed and anxious

    They do, but they also help me put life in perspective….like when the girls are fighting and driving me crazy…then I want to remember that I will only have them for a short while!!:-) Or when the teen and pre-teen attitude comes out and I have to clench my teeth…..
