J's Bucket List

On New Year's night at dinner, we shared our favorite events from 2013 including buying a house big enough for everyone to have his or her own bedroom.  We also discussed the difference between intentions and resolutions.  Each person told their intention for the new year.  Mine was to learn more about Eckhart Tolle's philosophies and apply them to my life, especially my relationship with my ex-husband.  A wants to get better grades, but he didn't have a plan for how to accomplish that so the family gave him some ideas.  C and S didn't have an intention to share; they're still thinking.  But J, decided he wanted to make a bucket list.  My child, who hates to write, asked for a paper and pencil and started his list with two items: bungee jumping and learning to speak the Navajo language.  He was fascinated by the Navajo code breakers in WWII.  He also informed us that Navajo is a dying language and it's only oral so he would have to go to New Mexico to learn it!
