Happy New Year!

Today doesn’t feel any different.

Why should it?

Because it’s a brand-new year!

If we want today to be different, I guess we’ll have to make it different. Any ideas?

Mom, don’t bother cleaning up. I’ll do it.

And I’ll help!

So does this year feel any different?

I think it does, a bit.

Happy New Year!
