In CPE, we used the action-reflection model of learning: do something, process how it went, adjust, and try again.
It occurred to me while I was making my 2016 goals that the same model might be helpful in parenting. (I seriously considered emailing the other playgroup moms and asking if they'd want to start a peer supervision group, too, but... no.)
So here I am, all set to act and reflect. I figure I'll pick one thing that worked over the course of the week, and one thing that didn't. A weekly Ignatian review-- places I saw light and love, and places I struggled.
That's the weekly plan. We'll see how it goes.

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was."
