What Is Your Word?

What child of the 70's doesn't have fondue for New Year's?

Cream puffs and candy for dessert.

Tacquitos per Jack's request.


For the past several years on New Year's Eve, our family had chosen a word (for each of us) that describes our personal goal for the coming year. It must be something positive, something that encourages principles that we believe in. The younger kids get a gentle suggestion for choosing their words. This year we are as follows:



Jon: Peace (though he states his word was actually going to be "independent")



Jack: Self-control (just a little direction in choosing this one)



Madeline: Tolerance



Julie: Sharing



Bill: Joy
