New Years Resolutions

I'm not into New Year's resolutions.

Why wait for a new year to improve yourself? 

You need to be making the choice to improve all year long. 

Every single day, be better. 

But this year, especially after the whirlwind Christmas season, I need to check myself....

I need a few resolutions in my life. 

I will play with my phone less, and play with toys more. 

I will be less distracted, and more involved. 

I will make eye contact every time I am spoken to, and listen without preparing an answer. 

I will work only during my designated time. 

I will get on the floor more. 

I will smile more. 

I will not get frustrated with my children when frustrated with something else. 

I will cuddle, love, and tickle. 

I will remind them how much I enjoy being with them every single day. 

I will treasure each and every moment - crappy or happy - because time is fleeting and I will never have this day with my children back again. 

Happy New Year, everyone!
