This post is part of a series of 31 Day to Cultivating Heart Connections with Your Child as part of the 31 Days of Five Minute Free Writes Challenge.
Maybe all of this heart connection stuff has felt a little bit foreign to you. Maybe you don’t fully understand what it is that your children need from you. Maybe you and your child are wired completely differently and what speaks love to them is hard for you.
That’s ok. We are working on cultivating connection not executing perfection.
Keep digging in and cultivating those heart connections.
Keep gathering around the table, keep noticing the good, keep listening to hear. The more you do those things, the easier it will get.
Practice makes improvement—not always perfection but definitely an improvement.
As you practice, habits will be formed, and it won’t seem as foreign to you.
As you practice, you will come to understand your child better so that you will know more often what he or she needs from you.
As you practice, your capacity to speak love in meaningful ways to your child will increase.
As you practice cultivating heart connections on a regular basis, you will see improvement in your ability to cultivate and in the quality of heart connections you have cultivated.
