Happy New Year!

I've never been very good at New Year's Resolutions.  I tend to make them and then quickly forget.  Hopefully this year I can do better.

Resolution #1
This year, I intend to appreciate my older children more.  They are 14 and 15.  I have become primarily the individual that drives them around town, drops off, and picks up.  My son and I manage to have good conversations, but my daughter and I seem to have lost that connection.  There are only a few more years left that I can count on the older children being around.  I am going to enjoy every minute with them, even if it involves driving. 

Resolution #2
I will play with my youngest child more.  Since he has Autism and multiple dr's appts and therapies, I tend to feel rushed a lot.  I am going to make sure that taking care of him also means playing.  It's time I had some fun. 

Resolution #3
I will be thankful for the life I have.  God has blessed me so much and I need to remember that every day.

There are only three of them, so I hope that I can actually keep them this year.
