You inspired me to try a family motto at our house We came up with “Kindness begins with me.” I’m still trying to come up with a good idea for displaying it though.

The perfectionist in me loves your motto! We don’t really have one, but if we did – it would be “Never, never, never give up!”. Got it from my Mom

Our family motto is “Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.” It covers everything from bad behavior to inappropriate clothing.

We don’t have one, but I think it’s a great idea. More concise, easier to come up with (and cuter to display) than a whole mission statement!

What a beautiful motto & great lesson to learn so early. I’m in my late 20s & only feel like I’ve only just learnt that mistakes are ok, it’s how you respond to & learn from them that matters. Maybe I should hang this on my own door!

Our motto is, “You get what you get, and you don’t throw a fit” With 5 kids in the house at one time, (now down to 3) it is hard to please everyone. Be happy with what you have, always.

I don’t have a family motto, but I love the idea. My school is using the phrase “have you filled a bucket today?” as a school-wide initiative to promote kindness to one another.

Our motto (mostly for me) You CAN do hard things!

I want one of those!!

And just wanted to say hi.

That’s all.
And I sent Mr. Campbell a card in the mail. Let me know if he doesn’t get it in a few days.

Are the dots order/color a representation of your children?

A friends family motto is “stupid hurts” (if you do something stupid it’s gonna hurt one way or another). It’s stuck with me for years now and I keep saying it to my two year old. It’s very appropriate for his age.

We totally have a family motto, they are great! We don’t change ours. But thanks for the printable, it goes along great with us trying to teach them to “take ownership” which is part of our motto. THANKS

OOoooh! A family motto–love it! I don’t suppose “Quit crying or I’ll give you something to cry about” would be appropriate?

Ours is “Act with love.”
