New Year’s resolutions can be tricky, so keep it simple.  You want to set a goal for yourself that will make you a better person, but you also want to keep it realistic to what you are pretty sure you can accomplish.

This year why not make it simple.  Set the goal of spending more time with your children and if you have a spouse/partner, to also spend more time with them.  As you get to know me the one thing that I believe our children are lacking the most is ourselves.  Not because we don’t want to give of our selves but usually because we are just to busy.

So I challenge you to see what you can give up in your life that will free up some of your time on a weekly basis so you can spend more time with those you love.  Even if it is 20 mins more a week.  It will make the world of difference to your children and partner.

Remember when it is all said and done your children will remember you more because of what you have done with them than they will remember what you have done for them.

Happy New year to all my readers and I wish you a very family filled 2015 with lots of love and laughter.
