Matt: Become more involved in his kids' schooling.

Al: Get home earlier and pick up his kids from school.


Ann: Wake up every morning with a prayer of thanks for being alive and a force of good in the world.

Meredith at first said she didn't make New Year's resolutions since she said she never keeps them. But she came up with her own after hearing her co-anchors' pledges: Do everything Al, Ann and Matt mentioned and more!

Natalie wrote about her nine New Year's resolutions in our TODAY Moms community page. Her top pledge: Loving more and complaining less!

Ann - The hat you wore this morning on the Today show was fur-trimmed. Even though the label might say faux fur, it is most likely cat or dog fur from China. Please resolve in 2011 to be more informed about this issue and not wear fur trimmed items. The faux fur labels from China are lies I know you are a compassionate person who loves animals. Fur from dogs and cats in China is a four billion dollar business, and the animals are brutally killed. Thank You!

      I plan to lose 10 pounds like Dr. Oz suggests. Since I am in my 60's, I know it is now more important than ever to become healthier! So, I will eat healthier in smaller portions....
