Hello! I (Hope, the founder of Family Scripts) love making this newsletter so much. This month’s theme for personal growth (Peacefulness + Awe) are very close to my heart, and I grew a lot as a person and as a parent as I prepared for these newsletters. Hopefully you did too! Please hop onto Friday’s post and share about ways your family grew closer together, favorite times spent in nature, and how your hours-spent-outside challenge went!
On the last week of the month, instead of sending out new newsletters, we encourage taking time to reflect.
Here are some highlights from the past month! Feel free to hold down on the images to save them to your phone for quick reference, and as always, please share this newsletter with a friend!
