Today is the day that you have been waiting for.

Today is the day your son hugs you in public in front of his pubescent mustache clad friends.

Today is the day that your daughter will make a blinged out “I Love My Mom” sweatshirt and wear it to school.

Today is the day that…I think you get the idea!!

Are you ready for this  #1, BombDiggity, AwesomeSauce Parenting Advice Of All Times…

Lay on your sons’ bed and talk to him!!

Wow!  Did you just hear what I said?  I’m gonna say that one more time…

Lay on your sons’ bed and talk to him!!

I just gotta say that the parenting advice I come up with is just genius.  No other way to say it.

So here’s the story behind this genius, innovative, ridiculous, life changing idea.

This week I was feeling a bit disconnected from my daughter so while she was laying in the floor doing homework I simply went back to her room, laid in her bed for about an hour and we just talked.

We talked about school, friends, sports, what a masculine – cool – hip – dad she has…we just talked about life.

This was the absolute best hour that I have spent with her in months.

This hour was better than the $50 dinner/movie nights, school shopping, Six Flags and our brief visit to Elvis’ house where we stood on our tip toes and looked over the wall because I was too cheap to buy a ticket!!

You should go old skool and give it a shot.

Mosey yonder into your daughter’s room, lay on the bed and just talk to her!

What do you think?  Will you give this a shot tonight?  Leave a comment and let me know.
