The Family Blackboard



- The Family Blackboard -


We have had this blackboard in our kitchen for many years.  And even though it is small in size,  I believe the messages jotted down have had a big impact on our lives.  


It started out with "Word of the Week" where each family member would take their turn to write a new word and its meaning.  As the kids grew older, however, they experienced life's ups and downs and so the focus changed and I would write down words of encouragement from the Bible or other popular quotes. 


Isn't it amazing what a few inspiring words can do to improve your day?  I hope that my children will pass this family tradition on to their own families someday. 


It's never too late to get your own blackboard...
