You're Doing It Right!

What are you doing right?

There is so much to be found about what parents are doing wrong. I though it would be fun to share the things we do that is right. It can be anything! Your thoughts might inspire someone to create a new family tradition or event.

I have three kids so I will probably have several replies as I choose to focus on one thing at a time.

My oldest is 15 and is not only a tech geek but is also really into music. So, it was no surprise when he starting remixing music.

Col and I have a game that we play with music. Whichever of us is the first to introduce the other to a new artist or a new sound by an established artist gets a point. We really do not have an official score card but we do remind the other about "finding" the artist and getting a point.

It is a fun past time for us and I think that it has really helped developed his ear for music AND that it is keeping me up to date on what is the latest and greatest in sound.
