New Year Resolution

As a woman who spends nearly all of her waking hours with teenagers I use a considerable amount of energy being patient, and hopefully firm, but kind. At school this seems to work out fine. However, at home I find it much harder. Maybe I have a limited supply of patience and the students use it all up. Maybe it's just because other peoples' kids can't push my buttons like my own do. As the school year starts I am committed to being a more patient and firm but kind parent. I am going to try very hard to save up some extra patience for home and spread it around evenly. Maybe even my husband will get some this year! This is my "New Years Resolution" (the school teacher kind).   Image from google images
