Just to reminder, turn off any distractions or move away from anything that's gonna pull you away and you're doing a great job. Patricia Sung 00:16 Okay, we're in module two, the framework and this is where we start to understand how the structure of our day looks and kind of putting the bigger picture together, where are we going with this? So, last time we talked about in module one about how routines are like frames for artwork. Our beautiful life is the art and the routine is the frame that gives it structure and, and supports it. Patricia Sung 00:41 So when we're thinking about both routines, and our frames for are, they are things like sturdy, we can rely on them, we can, we can lean on them when we're struggling. They support us in that way, right? They're modifiable. So this is not chiseled in stone, we're not creating a frame out of cement, or, you know, marble, it's something that we can modify and change as we need because kids are always changing. So our routine will not be the same even if we want it to a few months from now, because our kids will be different. So there is the modifiable aspect. Just like we can take the art out of a frame and put new ones in, we can take our art out and put in a new frame. There is a level of changeability that we can make to the process. Patricia Sung 01:28 They're also protective. So our frame protects our artwork from getting damaged. Also, our routine protects our day, it protects our joy, it keeps us sane. So it is providing that support. 

And it is in fact supportive. And this is where our routines are there to serve us. We are not there to serve the routine. The routine is not the boss. Patricia Sung 01:54 The routine is a tool that we are using to support our lives. And the routine and the frame. They are showcases right they kind of fade into the background. They're not the star of the show. They're there, they are doing their job well, but they're not the focal point, they will never be the focal point. They are there to provide a supporting role in the background, and really allow us to display or enjoy the art and the life that we have. So our goal is to make beautiful music in our day. And I'm going to pause there because this is longer section and I promise to keep these videos short. Be right back
