My hope for this year is that it will not be one of obstacles! Last year it seemed as though we were constantly up against obstacles we as a family could never catch a break...by the time summer came we welcomed it with opened arms because we knew that for once we could actually relax and time was on our side instead of against us. I am hoping that this school year will be one where the kids can really enjoy the year and the learning that comes with it. I know that the calendar itself will be a doozie as it does not lend to many breaks during the year, but if the kids can realize they can do what is expected of them and do it with quality and excellence then that will make for a great year. My hope is that reading will become more enjoyable for all of them, that they will grow with anticipation when reading a book and that they would choose to read their book over watching T.V. or playing on their DS, Wii, or XBox! I know that each grade comes with it's own struggles, but it can not be any more difficult than last year!
I also hope that this year will be one where we can spend more time as a family, going places and experiencing new places together. I hope my girls and Jackson find a really good friend, one they are inseparable from. Zachary has a few close friends that he does many things with, these selected boys have been together for many years and hopefully they will remain close as they reconnect in a new school.
This year will be a year of hope, a year of progress, and hopefully a year of wonderful memories!!
