One gift to give yourself as the season starts to get busy is to take a moment and step back. There are many activities and opportunities to have multiple experiences with family and friends, sometimes 3 or 4 in a single day. And this is where a moment of calm is what you actually need to give yourself and your family.

Some people find their calm in a walk in nature. Some people will read a book. And for some people, it is a nap that brings about the chance for the calmness to arrive in their lives. The children in your life can benefit from that opportunity to experience calmness as well. As the days continue to get shorter, the pressure to hurry can build and that usually is never a good thing for anyone.

How does the Forney Education Foundation factor

in to choosing the right moment for calm? The Board members have already had a busy beginning to the month of December with the Antlers and Tu-Tus fun run in the books as well as the topping out ceremony for the OC. And the events committee is already planning for the Casino Gala in April, 2023. But for the next 16 days, it will still be 2022. Take that moment for yourself, your family, and your friends, and pause to reflect on the many accomplishments that occurred in the past year. There have been many, many great things that have happened in your circles, and there will be many to come in the new year. The Foundation is excited to see where we go next in our support of the students, teachers, and staff in Forney ISD.
