2011 has flown by, so quickly! Didn't I just turn 33 last year? Oh yes, I'm not that shy exposing my age, the fine lines though I try to slow them down a bit, and the meager accomplishments at this time though not career-financially-wise, but yes, I'm a professional...mother and homemaker.
How I love flipping the calendar (which by the way I had my first hung at the back of our dining room door). It presents somehow a clean, crisp start of the year and day. For me that would mean setting small, manageable, feasible goals like keeping an organized paper pile, keeping up to my laundry (which means throwing one load per day in the washer), having a smooth running organization of seemingly unmanageable array of toys, and managing my moods which means keeping that loud voice at a minimum. Pretty simple right? But still, takes a lot of hard work and guts, of course.
As I embrace 2012, I hope to move a bit slowly. Savoring each moment of my children who show signs of early independence. I want to grab them and hold them still, let me embed that hug in my heart and memory, which surely in a few quick years will be a distant one. I hope to spend time with the family as a whole, try not to neglect the father who is the true head of the house, to whom I vowed to submit and serve. I hope to find more ways to be of service to my family, to the Church God has led me to, and to others whom He has brought in front of me to share the good news, inspire and encourage. Let me make everything count.
May this year bring us to a higher level of divine intervention, to a purpose-driven life, and to an overflowing abundance of grace!
God bless 2012. :)
