My niece posted on Facebook about her New Year’s resolution. She was taking a cue from her toddler. I loved the idea. There are so many things we can learn from our little ones. Here are her ideas.
This year, perhaps we should all strive to . . .
LIVE IN THE MOMENT
SAY Hi AND BYE TO EVERYONE
READ FICTION EVERYDAY
PLAY, PLAY, PLAY
BE CURIOUS
BE ASSERTIVE
(I love how honest and up-front children are with what they need or want. Couldn’t we all learn something from that. For this post, though, I am going to interpret this as a child being intent on what he is doing. I love watching a child “struggle” to figure something out.)
TAKE A NAP WHEN YOU NEED ONE
LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY
THROW A GOOD FIT EVERY NOW AND THEN
(While we see the need for this it’s not a part of our day we take pictures of. Somehow I am sure you can visualize this without a photo.)
HAVE FUN and BE SILLY
(I added this one. We do this a lot around here.)
