SOME OF MY GOALS/PLANS FOR 2012

ONE-ON-ONE WITH THE KIDS WITH WHATEVER PROJECT THEY CHOOSE. SAM AND I ARE DOING NIGHTLY READING AT BEDTIME. SOOO GLAD HE WANTED THIS ONE. SADLY HE DIDN'T GET MUCH OF THIS GROWING UP. THE GIRLS AND I DID THIS ALL THE TIME. NOT SURE WHY WE DIDN'T WITH SAM, THINK HE JUST WASN'T THAT INTERESTED. TONIGHT WAS OUR FIRST NIGHT AND HE WAS HAPPY ABOUT IT.
NEW TRADITIONS... LIKE NEW YEARS EVE COSMIC BOWLING..... WAS SOOO MUCH FUN AND WE WANT TO DO IT AGAIN.....FAMILY FUN IS ON THE LIST
KEEPING MY ART CLOSE BY AND DAILY PROJECTS AND IDEAS. BRINGING MY OLW INTO IT AND IN EVERY PROJECT I HAVE. THIS IS MY NEW WEEKLY JOURNAL.
MAKING TIME TO PLAY WITH THE KIDS, SLOW DOWN AND PLAY WHAT THEY WANT. HERE SAM HAD BEEN ASKING ALL DAY TO PLAY RESTRAUNT AND WE DID. HIS AND SUMMER IDEA WAS THAT WE WERE ON OUR ANNIVERSARY DATE AND THEY TOOK OUR PICTURE AND PRETEND COOK FOR US AND EVEN SANG A SONG LIKE THEY DO FOR YOUR BDAYS AT OUTBACK. I LOOOOOVE THIS MEMORY AND WANT MORE OF THEM.
ENJOYING RICH'S NEW CAR, FINALLY A CAR JUST FOR HIM. THE KIDS LOVE IT AND WANT TO KEEP RIDING IN IT. MAKE TIME FOR CAR TRIPS THIS YEAR
A BOX OF PRECIOUS MEMORIES FOR ME FROM MY MOM. IT WAS THE BEST GIFT FOR ME THIS CHRISTMAS. ALL KINDS OF SWEET THINGS THAT I KEEP LOOKING AT. MORE ON THIS LATER. THANK YOU MOM
FINDING A WAY TO HELP THESE TWO GET ALONG MORE AND SHARE FUN TIMES AND LOVE FOR ANOTHER. THEY COULD BE SOOOO GOOD FOR EACH OTHER IF ONLY THEY COULD SEE IT. LOVING THIS DAY AND HOW SHE HELPED HIM ON THE ICE AND WAS A BUDDY TO HIM. SMALL STEPS IS WHAT I NEED TO DO.
ENJOYING MORE OF THEM AND REALLY LOOKING AND LISTENING TO WHAT THEY NEED AND WANT. BEING THANKFUL FOR THEM AND THE LOVE I HAVE FOR THEM. REMEMBERING THE GOOD MOMENTS AND LETTING THEM STAY IN MY HEART.
FINDING NEW THING/ACTIVITIES/PLACES TO GO AND DO LIKE ICE SKATING

  2. These are all great choices. I use to do one on one reading with my oldest daughter. She would read her book and I would read mine, but still we would sit together and she really enjoyed that time. I love your art and your bowling shoes photo is just too cute. These kiddos look so happy. You are def doing something right! :)
