As a dad, one of my daily priorities is creating micro moments with my family. I intentionally keep this top of mind each day. We get limited time with our kids under our roof. By age 12, 75% of our time with our kids is gone. By age 18, 95% of the time we get with our kids will be gone. It could be a small thing like an extra long hug and love you. It could be a great laugh we have over something that’s just plain stupid. It could be talking about a memory from the past. Or it could be a big thing like taking the family to their first game at Madison Square Garden (A Sixers win by the way). The amazing thing about the trip up to NYC yesterday is there are multiple micro moments hidden in the larger moment. I can count a dozen from the trip off the top of my head. Those experiences are what our kids will remember. That’s what we will remember as dads. That’s where our power lies. Those micro moments will fill you up and energize you to be better for your kids. That’s The Warrior Dad way. Day in and day out, we intentionally pour into our families. It takes only ONE DAD to change a family tree forever. Dare to be uncommon. Love, lead, legacy. Create a legendary day! P.S. To learn more about The Warrior Dad brotherhood, send me a DM with one simple word, “LEGACY”. #dads #dad #dadsmatter #dadlife #parenting #parentingtips #parenthood #family #familyfirst #fatherhood
Jeff Wickersham multi generational family trip coming up this week
I'm a Knicks fan so it was a little difficult to hit the heart button on this post -- but - it got done!! Awesome!!! My 13 year old is begging to go back to the Garden!
So true! Those small moments really add up.
Great post Jeff Wickersham as I love the family time involved with watching our 76ers 🏀pull off a win in the Garden. Per the 1st lesson in my book, “never regret spending time with family”!
Jeff Wickersham thank you we will
love this; kid had a 3 hour flight delay on top of a 2 hour layover = so we went to the airport to see her and create a micro moment. 🏁
