Dream Big

Don’t ever stop dreaming.

Dreams are closely tied to your hopes.
Dreams connect us and help us to inspire one another.
Dreams motivate us to do more and try harder.

Dream as a family. Have everyone write their dreams for the rest of 2014 and seal them in an envelope. Open it on New Year’s Eve and see how close you came to reaching those dreams. If you’re not quite there yet, set goals to help each other move toward achieving them in 2015.

Let’s Talk: What are your hopes and dreams? What is the best dream you’ve been blessed to reach?
