January 1, 2013:
This will be my year to try to conquer chaos. I want to get a dayplanner and really use it. I want to keep lists,, and charts and scrapbooks so my children will remember their childhoods even after they start to forget them. I want to become more organized. I want to start a "Wish (What I Should Have) List", and start checking things off it. I want my children to do the same. I want to arrive early, or at the very least, on-time...I want to assign chores and make my children accountable for completing them. I want to set and achieve reasonable goals for myself and try to teach my children to do likewise. I want to set up a budget and stick with it. I want to share this process with my children so that they can begin to understand the value of a dollar and learn how to be fiscally responsible. I want to start a family tradition. I want to spend more quality 1 on 1 time with each of my children and encourage their relationships with each other. I want to see them be happy, excited and even sometimes sad for each other. I want to see empathy come from my children towards one another and all others...Then, somehow, I feel, all will be right with the world..How's that for starters???
