The next aspect, that is extensively written about in the book  Family Fragrance, is creating a home environment that draws growing children back; it is a place of loving memories.  This AROMA is composed of:

Affection - gives us a strong sense of acceptance and identity.
Respect - due to each family member because you are a family.
Order - gives a home a setting of order and peace.
Merriment - establishes the home as a place of sincere fun.
Affirmation - establishes a child's identity with praise.

Third, is the book Family Traditions.  Traditions establish and reinforce a strong sense of identity by using events such as holidays, spiritual birthdays and other events; by sharing family stories about where you grew up, etc; and by creating a family creed that communicates what you believe as a family.
