Choices

Deuteronomy 4:9
Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.

Choose two ways from the list to show love to your child TODAY.

Physical Touch
1) pat on the back
2) play with their hair

Words of Affirmation
3) "I like the way you …"
4) "Thank you for …"

Quality Time
5) work on a puzzle together
6) do some yard work or gardening together

Gifts
7) the next time you give your child something he needs, tie a ribbon on it, add a note or card, or wrap it up and present it
8) reward your child for effort made toward improvement

Acts of Service
9) invite them to do one of your chores with you
10) do a service project together (shopping for angel, pack shoebox, find things to donate)

Challenge: How many ways can you use this week?

Prayer Suggestion: Ask God to show you who else you could show love to today, this week.
