New Year's Resolutions

WHAT?! IT'S ALMOST MARCH?!

I know. This is Tru's resolution, not mine. And I was not made aware of it until I went to his parent/teacher conference and saw this most precious sheet of paper hanging on the wall.


He wants to be a better swimmer (**Note to self, call Ms. Johns, oops, Mrs. Haupt or Abby and set up lessons**). Sweet boy wants to jump off the diving board and swim without fear.

He wants to learn how to be nice better and thinks I can teach him. LOVE HIM. That is so touching that he thinks I have the ability to do that. (**Note to self, be nice to Tru so I don't ruin this!**)

There is just nothing sweeter than an unintended compliment from one of your kids where they expect nothing in return. They are rare and priceless moments.

If I had to guess, I would say these are the other kids' resolutions:
**Caroline- find as many places as possible to do a pirourette (regardless of people or glass objects in the path of the twirl)
**Bo- eat everything in multiples of fours . . . 4 wrappers, 4 pancakes, 4 fiber one bars (that is a BAD idea)
**Sascha- live up to nickname "Sassy" and say "NO" to almost everything

I've already forgotten mine for the year. Maybe it should have been reduce my aspartame intake.
