A modern, practical, and inspiring guide to creating deep heart connections with kids by regularly creating new experiences and intentional adventures together. Parents today complain of fragmented relationships with their kids. What parents yearn for--and their kids too--is deep, heart-to-heart connections. But how can parents compete with all the other noise fighting for their kids' attention? The answer, says Greta Eskridge, is to break free from regular routines and familiar comforts of home to experience new places and adventures--even if those adventures go awry. From simply reading a book together to going on an overnight backpacking trip, activities together provide unique and crucial bonding opportunities. Adventuring Together highlights Greta's stories of doing just that, including an array of ideas for outdoor and indoor ventures, what to do when your finances are limited, and how to adventure if your family can't hit the hiking trail or spend the night at a campground. Giving readers the tools to make adventures happen, Adventuring Together is a step-by-step guide for parents--whether in the city or the country--to start building connections today that will last a lifetime.

ISBN : 9781604411010
Book Description
It has taken forty years of living, loving, sorrow, laughter and thirty extra pounds to make me feel like a woman; having a really great muse doesnat hurt either. Inspiration is highly underrated. I used to think body image was everything; now I know it is self image that dictates who we are. This book of poetry was inspired by a most unusual muse: a man I have never even met. I see myself in my muse as easily as I see the blue in my eyes. I know this man on a soul level. I know most people wonat believe that, but that doesnat mean it isnat true. Faith and free will are amazing gifts. Imagination is not only for children. I never understood when people would say, aI just know, a until I heard his music. Yes, he is a musician. Something in his music just makes me feel like I know him. I am a tiny speck in this beautiful universe, and that suits me just fine because there are six billion other tiny specks just waiting to be bumped into. As for the title, well, I have faith most of you will figure it out. I grow weary explaining my poetry to people as they have forgotten how to believe. This is a love story, my love story.
