The Book My Daughter Asks for Every Single Year
I love family traditions. As an only child of divorced parents who moved around a lot, I craved consistency when I was younger. Now, as a parent, I’m intentional about creating meaningful traditions for my family of four, especially around the holidays, to foster a sense of security and consistency. We’ve got Fond of You Fondue night for Valentine’s Day, tamale-making on Christmas Day, and beloved themed nights for Hanukkah, like game night and book night.
