*Friendly Reminder rto Check Your Holiday Parenting Schedule*

The holidays may still feel a little ways off, but now is the time to pull out your parenting plan and make sure everyone knows what to expect.

Check Thanksgiving and winter break, exchange dates and times, school schedules, travel plans, and any holiday traditions or events that may affect the schedule.

If you spot a disagreement, don’t wait until December to try to work it out. A little planning now can help prevent a lot of holiday stress later.

If you and your co-parent need help working through holiday parenting-time issues, call us at Laidlaw Family Law to learn more about mediation and how we can help. (503) 305-6894

A *WILD* Weekend Activity Idea: Have People Over Without Cleaning First

Order pizza, put out some snacks, and invite people you actually like. Your house does not need to look like no humans live there before people are allowed inside!

The people who love you don't care about the laundry basket in the corner, prioritize connection over perfection and invite them anyway.

Family Friday Idea: Finish ONE Tiny Project

Not clean-the-whole-garage energy, we’re talking about one tiny thing that’s been quietly annoying you for weeks.

- Hang the pictures
- Organize one cabinet
- Plant the pots
- Fix the wobbly handle
- Finally deal with that pile you keep walking past.

Pick one small project, finish it, and enjoy that satisfying feeling every time you see it.
