To, For, With


Jim, our son Jay, our daughter Geneva (with Jeremy), and I went to Colorado to celebrate our daughter Jill's 50th birthday.  It was a wonderful time and we had such a good time meeting Jill and Oskars' friends.
I was reminded of all the many trips we took the kids on through the years.  There are 3 behaviors you can do with your children.
1.  To - that is the things you do to them.  Although some of those things are positive, such as kisses on a boo-boo, many are negative, such as punishment.
2.  For - those things your children did or could have done, but you did over or did for them because you didn't think they could have done well enough.
3.  With - those things you did with your children such as vacations, homework projects, games, play times, and silly stuff.
WHICH ONE MAKES THE MEMORIES?
Our children would say, hands down, WITH.
