Heart of a One-on-One

I recently took my four year old on a one-on-one trip to Finland. This is something I hope to do on rotation with all my kids. One on one trips, that is. Location may vary.

With three close in age, it’s a special opportunity to get more quality one-on-one time. Hanging with everyone together is cool too, but it’s just different.

This morning, when he woke up on a train to see snow all over the ground… I’ll never forget that look. It struck me that this is one of my favorite parts of being a dad.

I like to show love by giving people experiences, and when it comes to my kids, I know them. I know what wows them, I know what they’ve never seen before, and how to get it in front of them. And getting to serve up an experience like this is what it’s all about.
