42. Happy Birthday to WBM! Updates + the Principle "Show Don't Tell"

Welcome back to the podcast!

In this episode, I'm joined by my husband, Trenton Bird. We're celebrating exactly one year since the birth of Walk Beside Me and introducing you to season 2, including updates regarding what the podcast will be like moving forward.

Then we're diving into a principle that has been keeping us grounded as we navigate life with a vibrant toddler and adorable baby: show, don't tell. Over and over we've found that with our kids, actions truly speak louder than words. We're discussing why this is, how we have been applying this principle in day-to-day interactions with our kids, and of course how Jesus Christ is the THE ultimate example of teaching via who He is and what He does in addition to His magnificent words.
