Love this post @crosheille. Having an open door policy is hard, I mean it sounds great but I always worry about not being "prepared" if someone stops by. I would never ignore the door but it would be stressful. I'm glad you and your husband talked and prayed about it. At least he understands where you are coming from and can help you relax about it. I'm always amazed when some of the parental behaviors surface...not always ones we want right? :) So glad you shared this.
Thank you @birdsinparadise! I really appreciate you chiming in! Oh yes I definitely resonate with the feeling of not being prepared. Especially me being a stay at home mom. I may not be appropriately presentable for outside guest and if they just show up it’s like 😬 lol!
Right! Some of the parental behaviors that surface are ones we never thought would. Thanks again for your feedback!
