Is your child reading atleast an hour a night?  Are you taking the
opportunity to discuss the days events with your child?  I encourage you to
do both with your child.

Think before you eaat!  Use hunger as your guide for eating.  Think about
why you are eating.  Sometimes we eat for other reasons besides hunger,
like being bored, nervous or tired.

Plan Your Walking Route:  Plot your route in the car first.  You will be
able to plan ahead, measure the distance, track your speed and measure your
progress.  Optimum Target: 3 miles, 3 times a weak.  Come on you can do it!

On Monday, the world celebrates the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and
what he and many others gave their lives for.  Let us all work together
each and every day to make his dream of "one world" a reality.

"There is nothing more dangerous than to build a society, with a large
segment of people in that society, who feel that they have no stake in it;
who feel that they have nothing to lose. People who have a stake in their
society, protect that society, but when they don't have it, they
unconsciously want to destroy it."  Martin Luther King, Jr.
