And many of our children find it very hard to develop healthy family relationships." I am working hard at Having a Good Time with Joy these days. If I can do that, I count it twice, as a gift to HER and to MYSELF. On Sunday we sent to see a (surprise!) ballet performance which we both enjoyed. And in a few minutes here I am getting her up to go have (surprise!) breakfast and run some fun errands with me. These are gifts of time and fun which are for myself as much as for her !!
