Making goals: mom and me.

goals.jpg

Noah's goals at age 7.The final goal surprised me: "Being with mom for one day myself with mom."I felt completely overwhelmed with juggling work & kids - there were never enough hours in the week to manage. I could not imagine finding time to be with one of the kids alone.The power of dreaming and writing your goal down - the "mom and me day" was invented.With the help of friends, calling in sick to work, planning adventures when the others were at a sports practice or picking up one kid when the others are with their dad we found ways to make "mom and me" happen.Seven years later, we "mom and me" often.
