Building Healthy Families: What are some of your best childhood memories? Psychologist Mary Pipher says there are three things that most people usually remember with great happiness from childhood -- time spent outdoors, vacations and family meals. During these long summer days, spend time with your children or grandchildren outdoors. Take some time off work…plan a picnic…explore a new park or hiking trail. Let your children or grandchildren help choose the spot. You don’t have to go far from home or spend a lot of money to create forever memories! www.LutheranFamilyService.org Lutheran Family Service
