I love the idea of this! We have occasional "family meetings", but these are usually called by the children, and largely revolve around their desire to get a dog!
What we do manage more regularly, is Sunday dinner check-ins on what is happening in the week ahead, which gives us a chance to say what we're looking forward to (and what we may be a bit anxious about). Maybe there's an opportunity for us to bring in a bit of compliments/ gratitude as well.
That sounds like a great set-up on Sunday nights. I recommend the compliments / gratitude, our kids visibly swell up when one of us says something nice about them.
