If you've ever tried to give your child the ideal day by throwing a birthday party or taking them on an exciting trip, only for them to have a meltdown or complain, then this episode is for you. In it, Devon Harris shares about how about a day spent doing mundane things with her son led him to declare it was "the best day ever" So what was it about that day that had such a profound impact? And how can you bring in the elements she talks about into your every day life?
