Most embarrassing thing my child said in public?

My son asked his kindergarten teacher, “Is it true that redheads are wild?” She was a redhead.

My Favorite childhood movie or show.

Lassie and Little House on the Prairie.

Proudest parent moments to date:

Both of my children are succeeding in different areas of their lives that bring them joy, and I am very proud of that.

Best parenting advice I have received.

That there are seven principles every child needs: spiritual, moral, relational, vocational, financial, authoritative, and personal. You should do your best as a parent to help fulfill all of them.

Best advice about working with family?
