OUR JOURNALS -- OUR JOURNEYS

WORLD PEACE

Loving Our Families!

To help make world peace you can go home and give your mom and dad a big hug and kiss. If there are dirty dishes in the sink and mom and dad are busy YOU wash the dishes! Do little things that add up to a lot like:

Do the wash even if you do not have to
Wash the car when it is looking dirty
Feed your pets when no one else can
Or just sit down and watch a family movie together

It's the little things that count. Don't try to take on things that are too big for you handle. And don't just do things for just your mom and dad. Do things for your whole family. Like: Save up some money and rent a family tape on a weekend that you have nothing to do. Sit down as a family and watch it.

These kind of things bring a family together.

By: Ashley Campbell

To love your family means to give hugs and kisses. When your mom comes home from work dead tired and there's dirty dishes clean them. Do little things like:

feed your dogs when no one else can wash the dirty car watch a T.V.show togher play games together

World Peace

Loving Your Family:

In our family we have mother and father appreciation weekends where my brother and I do everthing around the house and we serve breakfast lunch and dinner. We also don't let our parents out of our sight. We make sure they stay in the their bed so they can see what it feels like to sit in bed and do nothing for the whole weekend. We also don't let our parents know ahead of time. Last but not least on Sunday our parents insist on letting them cook dinner but we try to persuade them not to (notice I said try. Anyway that's how it goes.

Sincerely,
