If You Were Busy Being Kind
by R. Foreman
If you were busy being kind,
Before you knew it you would find
You’d soon forget to think ’twas true
That someone was unkind to you.
If you were busy being glad
And cheering people who seem sad,
Although your heart might ache a bit,
You’d soon forget to notice it.
If you were busy being good,
And doing just the best you could,
You’d not have time to blame some man
Who’s doing just the best he can.
If you were busy being true
To what you know you ought to do,
You’d be so busy you’d forget
The blunders of the folks you’ve met.
If you were busy being right,
You’d find yourself too busy quite
To criticize your brother long,
Because he’s busy being wrong.

Writing: In your notebook or journal, write about three things you did or that happened during the Christmas break. You could write about a fun family tradition, how the holidays were different this year, a favorite food that you enjoyed, something nice someone did for you, etc. Come prepared to share a happy highlight!
Imaginative arts: Get creative in the kitchen! Make a recipe this week and, if it's reasonable, bring some of what you made to share. What foods do you like? What do you usually buy that maybe you could try making at home? (For example, I'm wanting to try to make my own English muffins. Never thought of trying that at home! I just always buy them.) Be sure to clean up after yourself! If you love how it turned out, email me the recipe and we'll share it (or bring a copy for each family).
