This year (2009) though we will be straightening out our finances and with that comes some needed organization. Yesterday I went to Indigo and picked up The Homebox. http://www.sindenhome.com/ By organizing our finances and other important paperwork, we will be doing the whole family a huge favour. It will relieve a lot of stress and hopefully we'll have our wills done as well. _________________________ Hannah 97 Parker 99 M/C angel Sept 13/04 Lydia July 05 Before you get wrapped up in Christmas shopping, watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVqqj1v-ZBU

I see that as part of being a parent to my children and building a strong relationship as a family. If I were to make a resolution and I don't usually do that because they tend to be forgotten, but it would be more cognizant of kids need for different, alone time with me. I often interact with them as a unit instead of individuals because of time constraints. I only manage it about once a month with each alone. _________________________ Happily single and enjoying the freedom to watch and guide my kids as they mature and experience life!

I've let myself go so badly since having kids that now I want to try to lose weight, look and feel better. Exercice, which for me is the Devil...lol... I'm going to force myself to use our wii... Dance Revolution has a workout setting so I'll try that...lol... _________________________

As for the listed resolutions....they're all constants. _________________________ Emily Married Fall '99 DS Fall '02 DD Summer '04 "The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine."

mom2MKCN mom2MKCN enjoying every moment with my last little baby...may I never forget these moments Registered: 02/04/07 Posts: 11474 Loc: Southwest Ontario	2009 will be about survival for me. I will have 4 children...2 of which will be under 18 months. My goal is to make it through those first few difficult months without loosing any of them! lol By "survival" I mean parent to my standards. I don't want anything to slack just because there is one more. I also don't want to turn into a parent that I don't want to be just because things get more difficult and chaotic.
