Today Giovanna asked to have lunch just me and her. After picking her up from school (and making Brazilian panqueca de carne moída for Ale and Bianca) we headed to Outback.
This school year has been difficult for her to a point she’s been considering homeschooling. The last news about one of the art teachers from her school made her really anxious.
We sat down and talked about school, plans for the future, and the world and people in it nowadays. I am grateful for our close relationship and for being able to build trust with each other and strengthen our connection even more.
I am a big believer that open communication is everything and I cannot stress enough to my children they can talk to me anytime, anywhere. I will shut my computer, turn the TV off, and avoid any distractions to listen, teach, and address any of their concerns.
“And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children”.
(3 Ne. 22:13)
