Listen in as we talk about one of our greatest accomplishments - building and maintaining a healthy, lasting relationship with our children. We talk about the investment that gives the most rewarding return there is - a loving connection with our now adult children that will last a lifetime - our greatest legacy! Jamie talks about her recent mother/daughter getaway with Chandler that will surely turn into an annual affair (if not more often). We talk about the challenges of connecting with our adolescent children (that all parents face), and how to stay the course, loving even when it's hard, especially when we feel our love isn't reciprocated. Perhaps they're doing the best they can with who they are at the time, and what they've been given, and when confronted with undying, uncompromising love, they might just turn out to be your best friend!
