[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes.  I was talking about love languages with the kids a couple years ago and one of them said it makes her feel loved when she comes home and smells food cooking. One feels loved when I put her clean shirts in rainbow order.  So maybe sometimes I don't have time for an hour-long talk about the drama of sixth grade but I can have something baking in the oven when she comes home.  It takes two seconds to put a note near the front door that says, "Meredith, INHALE!"

Also, a lot of parents think that spending time has to be some super fun/expensive outting.  But really, we just spend time doing errands together and that's enough.  One of my kids will sit on the counter and talk to me as I clean up from dinner. One will lean in the doorway watching me put on makeup while we chat.

Arranging shirts is not 1-1 time.[/quote]

It can be, but that’s irrelevant because that’s not what PP said. Quit looking for things to criticize others for. She said it’s something she does that her kid notices and makes her feel happy. [/quote]
