The Power of One. How many times have you heard that phrase? Then you think – that doesn’t apply to me! But it does.

You are the power within your home to make things happen, to influence and guide your children. That is the most important “power” that you have. In the process you impact the friends of your children and their parents. If you don’t have children, you influence family members, friends, and associates.

Do you volunteer at school? Do you go to work? Are you married?
