Making memories
Jan 29th, 2008 by Alicia
I try to have my kids have at least one memorable/magical thing happen every day. It certainly doesn’t always happen but I like the idea of making every day count (for us grown ups too) and I want them to look back on their childhoods and remember more than just a blur of days. It takes so little to make a lasting memory, too.
Here’s some things I have planned for the next week…
- Homeschool swimming at the fancy pool out of town
- Lunch with Grandma and Grandpa for Grandpa’s birthday
- It’s supposed to get bitterly cold again so we’re going to try freezing bubbles
A “glamour shots” style photo shoot with the girls, a silly one with the boys- A photo shoot with a mix of styles for all the kids, since my girls like to be silly and my boys are very handsome
- I finally want to find a fondue recipe and make this with the kids
- Videotape a talent show the kids put on
- Decorate a door with Annalee
- Submit some of the kids’ writing and artwork to kid magazines
I’m going to try to do some memorable stuff for myself and with Daryl too.
Off to work on the list!
