What is your most cherished family tradition?
My husband and I started a tradition to create more quality time with our five-year-old son and three-year-old daughter. Every night at dinner, each of us tells a story. The kids tell us about their day’s adventures and love hearing about our own as children—how Daddy used to milk a goat every morning, or how my sister and I got caught in a flash flood in a creek on our way to school. After 16 years together, my husband and I are still learning fun new things about each other.
