Family Functions

Every family is different. While we have all at some point dreamed of having the perfect family where everybody gets along all of the time and everyone lives up to expectations, that is not the way it works for most of us. Life and people throw kinks into our ideals, and because families don't come with a guide book, we often have to figure things out as we go. What is the best way to handle these kinks? How do we learn to live and love and function as a family when things get complicated? Jason and Michelle have learned a lot as they have worked to love each other, blend their families, parent their children, and manage all of the nuances involved in those tasks. Join them as they share their experiences and lessons learned and offer some applicable "function keys" to help your family function.
