As a part of our daily lives we really want to teach our children good character qualities. As two year olds it is pretty easy to know the character qualities that I want instill in them. Things like obedience, patience, generosity, and self-control. As they get older I will want to move on to other valuable lessons. I thought this list from Raising Homemakers was a great resource and gave me a lot to think about.
