Loving Our Kids Through Transition

Leave a Comment

By Lilly at Velvet Ashes?

“Mom, I really miss my friends.” We’d moved to the Middle East a few months before, and my oldest – then 3. 8 years old – was really struggling with leaving our old life behind. Her downcast look made my heart sink.

“Oh sweetheart, I know. I miss my friends so much too…” I wanted her to know she wasn’t alone. But I also wanted to guide her heart to the One who comforts us. ”

Please read the rest of Lilly’s great article on how she helped her girls through many transitions from place to place. She has wonderful ideas of ways to smooth the transition and help her daughters feel a part of the process of moving. Velvet Ashes
