Welcome to our Summer Series! In this episode, Don and Suzanne talk about how to intentionally plan your family’s summer so it’s filled with peace, purpose, and connection—not just chaos.

• Creating a loose plan for summer (structure without pressure)
• Establishing daily rhythms your kids can rely on
• The importance of rest, reflection, and safe space
• Using planned fun and budget-friendly ideas to make memories
• Teaching character, processing hard experiences, and building sibling connection
