New Series: Carrie’s Little Book of Ideas!
I am excited to introduce to you my new book series:ย Carrie’s Little Book of Ideas!
Each little book will have its own topic and will include tips and tools to help families THRIVE. The first two books are now available onย Amazon, and I have plans for many, many more. My prayer is that each book will offer practical ideas for strengthening families, and I hope that parents will find them to be valuable and helpful.
Little Books. Big Ideas.
CLBI: When Parenting Hurts — Parenting can be one of the greatest joys in life, but it can also be one of the greatest heartaches. The love that we parents naturally have for our children is deep. And when we love much, we risk hurting much. Included in this resource are some ideas for things to do, things to remember, conversations to start, Scripture to meditate on, and even music to listen to when you, as a mom or dad, are going through a difficult time. When–for whatever the reason–parenting hurts.
CLBI: Gratitude — Speaking it, writing it, acknowledging it, posting it on the wall… There are so many ways to bring gratitude to light and make a big deal out of it! I believe so strongly that we parents must be intentional about teaching this to our children. But we canโt teach them something we donโt understand and put into practice ourselves. Itโs not just our kids who struggle with feelings of entitlement. We need to keep ourselves in check, too. Letโs fight entitlement with gratitude. This book will give you some practical steps to help make this a reality in your family. Included in this resource are some ideas for ways your family can serve others, ways to help your family gain awareness of others, ways to cultivate an attitude of gratitude in your family, and Scripture passages to encourage gratitude and thinking of others.
