Tamara’s Thoughts for January 2025 . . . Come and Sing Along!

This article is intended to be sang to the tune of the ABC Alphabet song. And by the way - before anyone reading this alleges that I got the syllables wrong – I did not. Count and articulate every word and phrase and you’ll see that I am correct 😊

As I mentioned at the end of 2024, I intend to post each month going forward. I just feel like doing it in song.

New Year’s resolutions we

Make the first week of January

Exercise, save money

Break bad habits, plant a tree

All are worthy goals for ye

Bringing happiness for thee

Take to heart this gentle plea

Resolutions for the family

Divorce or custody

Arguments that children see

Cause trauma, sadness, no glee

Making children feel crappy

In this New Year be gutsy

Be the better person and agree

Resolve primarily

To be kind and not beastly

Children need especially

Love and all-around safety.

In the new year, we make resolutions that we believe will enrich our lives. Let’s also make resolutions to make life easier for our children, especially when we are in the middle of a divorce or a custody matter. Resolve in 2025 to become the parent that we want to be for our children – the parent we know we need to be for our children – the parent who refuses to let our children be dragged down by the conflicts that arise between our former spouses or partners, and ourselves.

Happy New Year to You and Yours!
