Positive Spin.
Some people can always put a positive spin on things. Yesterday I had a short conversation with Church Friend R. She is always upbeat! How does she do that?
So, I have learned to word things a certain way when I speak with her. Like, I can never complain about the boys when they are going to numerous church activites, school or work, or to the gym. When they needed rides, we made it happen.
Now, I am learning to ask more questions so that the boys don't try to pull the wool over my eyes. Open and frank discussion? Call home if you need anything? Well, at least "call your father!" And this comes from a person whose line of work (law enforcement) makes you see the world differently.
