Identifying our emotions is very important to our personal growth and development and teaching our children to tap into their true feelings and dealing with them so everything doesn't get stuffed and unresolved.

Years ago when I was going through my divorce and the kids where younger and they where sad and confused and a multitude of different emotions. I decided to have a family meeting with myself and the two younger kids and printed off the above feelings chart. We would each pick out 3 feelings that we felt during the past week and talk about it. It seemed to really help. Well years later when my son was around 16 I was crying in my room behind closed doors and I hear this knock and in walks my son with the feeling chart and he says "I think you need to label what your feeling and we can talk about it and then let it go". How blessed is that. Print it off you will never know when you or someone you know may need it. Big cyber hug. Have the best day.hug.jpg
