Once your holiday is over, you can’t help but want to remember every single detail. However, memories fade over time, making it important to remember and recount your trip in other ways.

They also start to spend more time with their peers or their interests, hobbies and sports. It can feel like time is squeezed, and while in some aspects that may be true, it's more about making the time we have with them, quality time, where we are fully present.  It’s easy to drift into a routine where family life becomes increasingly busy, where everyone may be in the same room, but not really connecting.
