Welcome to 31 Days of Becoming an Intentional Parent. If you’re new here, this is a 31 day challenge issued by The Nester. She asked us to write about the same topic for 31 days straight. I thought about picking something that I knew a lot about, but I decided to choose something that I’m trying to learn. Being more intentional in my parenting is something that I believe God is calling me to make a priority right now. So we’re going to hash it out together during these 31 days.
Disclaimer: I am NOT an expert on intentional parenting. I’m not an expert in ANY type of parenting. I’m just willing to share what we do, what we want to do, and what we think God is calling us to do. My hope is that you’ll jump in and comment about how you do some of the things we’ll talk about this month.
This page is going to be the home base for the 31 Days of Becoming an Intentional Parent series. Each day I’ll write a new post and add it to the list below. So bookmark this page, stop back, grab a cup of coffee, put your feet up, and talk with me about parenting on purpose. If you prefer to read in your RSS reader, I’ve set up a feed just for this series here. Or if you prefer to get updates by email, you can subscribe to get just the 31 days posts here.
