"I
feel like a different person. After speaking
with Michelle about the amazing but simple ways
to use these tools, I feel so empowered as a
parent… and I don’t even have my
kit yet. I can’t wait to get mine and
start with my family."

Shari Braendel's Story
"Because we have three college-aged daughters, a middle school son, as well as two busy parents, mealtimes at our house were quite a challenge.On the nights that we did come together to the table, our family dinners tended to be on the “dry” side. Well, when I brought home the Toolkit with the Honor plate and the Table Thyme cards, we decided to try out one of those cards on the very first night. That one question had us talking and sharing, and before we knew it, dinner was over! The next evening the kids said, “Get out those cards, and let’s do it again!” I have to tell you how humbled I was when the card that was pulled that particular night touched on the virtue of “Gentleness”. Each person was to go around the table and tell the name of the person that they knew who was most “gentle” and why…every one of them chose me. I wanted to cry! When each had their own explanation as to why they had chosen me, my heart was truly moved.
Needless to say, these simple tools have brought us ALL back to the table at the SAME time. Our time spent together during meals has changed in less than one week, because we are finding out so much about one another. Here’s the BEST part about the Family Enrichment Toolkit, the size of your family or the age of your children makes no difference. Everyone is having a great time with the cards, and everyone is excited to see who will receive the Honor plate next. I can see my children continuing on this tradition when they are married with their own children. I want to encourage everyone I know to get a kit for their family!"
Thank you so much,

“When I first saw the Family Enrichment Toolkit, I thought, "What a great idea! I wish I had children young enough to the program."I have 4 children; the youngest is 15, soon to be 16, and the only one left at home. I did not think the program would be applicable or of interest to a 15 year old boy! Well, Michelle convinced me to at least try the Table Thyme discussion cards. I did, and to my surprise, my teenager really enjoys the discussions brought forth by the cards and had no resistance to my using them at our devotion time (rather than just meal time) before bed. These cards take only moments (less than a minute) to read. Our discussions have ranged from simply answering the question directly (less than a minute) to 5 minute discussions. He and I have discovered so much more about each other. I highly recommend the toolkit for teenagers...” Read More
