Life moves pretty fast.
If you don't take a look around once and awhile,
you could miss it.
Ferris Bueller
Celebrate New Year's around 9:00 with your family so the kids can get to bed at a decent hour. Turn the clock to 11:59, count down, and sing "Auld Lang Syne" at 'midnight'. Then the grown ups have some quiet time to themselves. Parenting Magazine
When sending Christmas thank-you notes, tuck in a snapshot of yourself enjoying the gift.
As you pack up the Christmas tree decorations, ask family members to write a prediction for the coming year on a piece of paper. Put them in the ornament box and read them next year.
Make a family calendar. You can start with a blank one from a scrapbook or craft store, of just add to any calendar. Add all the family birthdays in the appropriate squares and decorate them. Sort through photos and choose a few for each month. Scan them into the computer and print them out or just attach them to you calendar. Sorting through your pictures is a wonderful way to remember all the happy times of the past year.
