There is one think I’ve always had trouble modeling for my kids – taking good care of myself. I, like most parents, spend most of my time taking care of my family (and working) and never enough time taking care of myself. One of the things we really wanted to work on this year is taking small steps toward making our neighborhood (and home) a brighter place. I’m not talking about huge total turnarounds from our normal lives, because that’s not always feasible, but little things to make my family and my neighbors smile a little more or feel a little bit better about themselves.
