"I want to be more active with the kids. I make time to go to yoga class and they're always out running around, but this year I want to play with them more -- shoot hoops in the driveway or at the school playground, kick the soccer ball around at the park, play flashlight tag on summer nights, actually get into the swimming pool instead of sitting in my chair on the side. And my resolution is to do this even if I'm tired or would rather just sit reading a book or texting my sister!" -- Sara
