I get to talk to Roni Lambrecht about her real estate business and losing a child. 
About Roni:      My husband and I lost our only child 5 years + 11 months ago in an ATV accident. Since then, we have really taken notice of families not paying attention to each other; either distracted by activities, books, or electronics/cell phones, yet spending lots of money going out to dinner or traveling to wonderful places, only to find themselves still "connected" to everyone other than their children.

That said, I spend a lot of time working with and speaking to, parents about valuing the small moments within the daily chaos of life versus always working toward the big things/events/vacations. While it's important to have goals to work toward, we must always remember that it's really about the small moments in each day, as those are the moments where real memories are made.

Gain knowledge about taking advantage of the small daily events that life gives us; doing chores together, reading/music/learning together, planning events/trips together, etc.
Learn how journaling has affected our lives and hopefully choose to journal to their own children… tangible and emotional benefits.
Reminders that their words and actions toward and in front of their children do matter.
