2013 is here!!

Ok, how did I go the entire month of December without posting on the blog?  Honestly, December was one of those months where life seemed to be a check list.  And you know what?  I don't (and didn't) like that!  It just makes things, activities and family time not as joyous as they should be.

The beginning of a new year is always synonymous with resolutions and/or goal setting.  Turning to the dictionary -

A Resolution:
1-a resolve or determination: to make a firm resolution to do something.
2- the act of resolving or determining upon an action or course of action, method, procedure, etc.

3- the mental state or quality of being resolved or resolute; firmness of purpose.

 

A Goal:

The result or achievement toward which effort is directed; aim; end.

 

My friend's husband Trevor, posted this YouTube video that really got me to thinking.  Maybe it will you too.  I also LOVE their dog and the Narnia-esque picture on the wall behind Trevor.

Make a plan and

do something every day. 

And over time you will see progress!!

 

Part of my plan is with this blog!  I already know that posting something everyday as a plan is not reasonable.  But I KNOW I can post once a week!  Whether I am the only one that reads this or not.  And besides, I really enjoy documenting our family life and printing it out in a hardbound book.  A modern journal of sorts.  One that I have seen my kids pick up off the shelf and flip through the pages.  Something that over time will show the progress!

 

Now on to creating beauty after a storm.
