Strong Families

I've always known that I come from a very close family, but it was very interesting to hear the six characteristics of a strong family.  It's so fun to hear all of these things and compare it to my own family.  Learning these six characteristics help me to understand the reasons to why my family is so strong.  In applying these concepts to my life, I think it will be very helpful to know these some day when I have my own family.  I hope that as a parent, I can do half as well as my parents have done with keeping a strong family.
