It was just a great memory.

I don't remember the spiritual significance of that one.

I really don't.

It was just plain fun.

And that's another thing.

Stuff in this book is just fun.

And again, the minor things, making memories with your children, I think that's what, at least at my age,

that's what I cherish, is those memories. Well, that's Jay LaFoon, and he and his wife, Laura,

join us today on Focus on the Family with Jim Daly, and they're going to be talking about activities

you can do as a mom or a dad with your kids. Thanks for joining us. I'm John Fuller. You know, it's possible you're just

getting through the motions of life. You're busy. You may have a job outside the home as a mom and

probably as a dad you're working hard. And it comes to that point when you're going, man, we're just

going through the motions. Listen, focus on the family. We don't want you to simply survive. We want you to thrive as you are married and building your marriage and especially on parenting too. So you're able to thrive in Christ, which is, I think, a great slogan.

That is the goal. And I appreciate that. And today we're going to talk specifically about how to do that in the parenting journey,

particularly for dads, but there's application for mom too.

But dads, we need to be engaged. It's not just mom's job to raise the kids.

And I hope we prove that to you today.

Yeah, Jay and Laura LaFoon, our authors and speakers, and they've written a terrific little book called Ultimate Dad Night,

75 amazing activities for dads and kids.

You can learn more in the show notes.

Jan Laura, welcome back to focus.

Great to be here.
