First in 2014
Family lost a kitty, bred chicks and went to Japan and Tofino.
Dad: worked on a project for license application
Mom: went to a distant country alone for work
10-yr-old: starting viola
8-yr-old: starting guitar, going to Bainbridge Island, getting a tooth pulled out,
What we have to be thankful for 2014
Dad: family, friends, healthy and ....
Mom: everything; even though certain things were difficult in 2014, they can be now good life lessons to draw from
10-yr-old: family, happiness of discovering new things like what I can do, and of rising to a new level, and of knowing that my hard work is cherished, love, and new clothes
8-yr-old: my comfy bed, new clothes - my sweater, my friends, books, electronics (mom >_<), fresh air, hiking, our place
New hope for 2015
For self -
Dad: family health; leave a sticky situation for 5 min. and calm down
Mom: regular exercise; stay positive (8-yr-old: mommy is already positive)
10-yr-old: more time to focus on Chinese work (got an 80 on test which is an F for her, it's because of lack of concentration); work on viola; take deep breaths before handling a situation and ignore those who bother me
8-yr-old: doing more math and writing to be the best at writing and math; grow bigger and get better at soccer; become techi in class; stop pouncing on sister; be more organized
For family -
For Daddy:
control his temper and don't scare and threaten us when we disagree with him; stop looking at computer and get outside; control his volume; stop wearing boxer pants in front of windows; have better mood in the morning; get rid of the tooth-shaped hair patch on forehead; stop snoring; stop drinking coffee everyday (dad: no way); stop making faces
For Mommy:
(from 8-yr-old) eat more things faster; open more things (like chocolate potato chips); don't pick teeth; stop using my towel to cover herself when brushing teeth; buy a new bathrobe to wear and not wear mine; let us play Mario once a day (Mom's response: don't even think during the week); stop putting on ghost mask; stop being afraid of cold
(from 10-yr-old) to *always* listen to us with more explanation; stop chewing finger
(from dad) exercise more
For 10-yr-old:
(from 8-yr-old) stop wearing glasses every meal of the day; stop staring at me; stop being mad after getting out of bed in the morning; stop having nightmares about stealing your cake and stop screaming at me at night; stop putting up feet at dining table and stop kicking me; stop stealing chocolates from cupboard; stop reading every single minute of everyday; stop disliking your brother's presents; stop putting wart on my face; stop making kids run after me; stop sitting on daddy; stop trying to annoy me; stop taunting me for eating candies
(from mom) clean and organize your own space; be confident and understand that you don't need to please anyone;
(from dad) be organized; be nice to parents and stop attitudes; drink water; don't yell at family; plan ahead
For 8-yr-old:
(from mom) stop chewing fingers/thumbs; quit candy; eat only healthy snacks and always brush teeth; always stay responsible and polite
(from dad) good attitude; be more confident in playing sports;
(from 10-yr-old) stop breaking promises; stop annoying me; find something to do when feeling bored; stop doing disgusting things; stop imitating swords men or pointing finger guns at me; try to keep words all the time; stay loyal to family; be more honest
Happy New Year of 2015
