Inspired by this years advent activities I thought it might be a fun idea to make my new years resolution to do something fun with the kids every day and blog about it, My other half pointed out that it was a bad idea because it puts too much pressure on me to do something every day and to write a blog every night and that some days or nights I might not feel up to it, I might want a day of just doing nothing, and I suppose in a sense he could be right, for instance if I was to become unwell I certainly wouldn't be up to it so I've made my new years resolution simply 'Teach Joy to Read' I realize she's still young, she's only 4, so I might not be successful at this. Donald was reading at such a young age but I understand that she is completely different from him so I'm not getting my hopes up but I will do my best anyways!
Now theres the matter of how to spend hogmanay? We were going to take the kids to their cousins to celebrate the new year but their cousins are all unwell so there goes that idea. I thought about asking if anyone would like some first footers because we've literally done nothing for the past few years and I was really looking forward to getting out and doing something but I thought if someone takes us up on it we can't change our mind and tomorrow night I might not be so fond of the idea of getting out so then the idea of sending the kids to bed early and playing scrabble til midnight with the other half came into my head. It's a lame way to spend new year, I was so looking forward to getting out but it's better than listening to kids hyper on shloer running around way past their bedtime!
