Follow Their Passions

Parents, 

Encourage your children's passions. 

If they are into football, let them play football, 

if they are into soccer, encourage soccer, 

if their passion is cooking, take them to cooking classes, 

if their passion is making money, let them set up as many businesses as they want. 

Hannah, our 10 year old, loves horses and has for years. 

We had her "prove" herself by having bunnies for pets for three years.  

"He who is faithful in little , is faithful in much."

This year we are taking her passion one step further with riding lessons. 

We didn't go into this  activity impulsively, we considered the cost. 

I pay for one session, she pays for one session, I pay for one session, she pays for one session. 

She has to earn the money through her paper route, which is not her passion, but it is a means to the end---riding lessons. 

Parents, where there is a will, there is  a way.  

Figure out what your children's  passions are, encourage them and pursue them. 

Yes, it takes time.  

But, that is the best gift you can give your children...your time.
