I hope we will shine in 2009

Since this blog is also like my journal I wanted to post our family goals on it. Hopefully with them posted it will encourage us to do them. I want my family to be better this year. I told them 2009 was Christ-like time. For FHE I went around to each member of my house and asked them "How they were going to be more Christ-like this year and also how they were going to be a better person?"

Hyman Family Goals 2009 It is CHRIST-LIKE time.

Katie -

* To go on the potty no more diapers for Mommy and Daddy.

(since Katie is so little that is a great goal for her.)

Eliza -

* Be Nice, Try not to be mean

* No hitting and scratching

* No middle finger to anyone.

(I just wrote what she told me. Why she would say that is beyond me. She saw a shirt at the sand dunes that had the middle finger on it and has asked a ton of questions. She knows it means something bad.)
