The Power of Saying Yes

No matter how patient or indulgent you are, there will come a point where you want to say no. However, it is important to say yes, even if it's the thousandth time. Say yes because that's the time that counts. None of us know how many more times we have, so make each time count like it was the first.

Embracing the Thousandth Time

"C’mon, Dad, again! One more time! Can we keep going a little longer? Let’s start over! I don’t want to stop!

You’ve heard all these things more times than you can count. The request for one more book before bed. One more time riding on your back. To watch that funny video one more time. To sing that song once more from the beginning. To hear the story over again. To jump in the pool one more time… and then one more time after that… and one more time after that."

Ryan describes the importance of these moments, and why we should appreciate every one of them, in today's Daily Dad Podcast.
