Im usually a "make resolutions" type person for the New Year. I might have failed the previous year to stick to them but that doesnt stop me from making new ones each year (or some of the same old ones lol.) This year instead of resolutions Im picking one word to focus on for the year.
This is not my brilliant idea. I was partying it up last night for New Years Eve (laying in bed watching tv and reading blogs) when I came across Clover Lane. I loved her idea of picking just one word to be the emphasis of your new year.
A word can encompass so many different areas. For me a word is easier to remember than a whole bunch of resolutions and I like the idea of displaying it somewhere to remind me of what I want for the New Year. After much thought my word is Choose. I choose to spend my time wisely (less daytime computer, more quality kids time), choose to be healthier, choose to be joyful, choose to pray more and be more consistent with my devotions, choose to be frugal...you get the picture. Oh and one I really like is to choose to be present in the moment that is happening right now.

I love this idea it is such wonderful way to look at resolutions! I wish I would have read it sooner. Oh well I think my one resolution isn't too bad!
I am glad you liked the headbands! It was my first time linking up to anything and I about died when I saw everyone who picked up on it. Seriously those are the blogs I read all the time so I was super flattered they liked my project so much.
I miss you tons and don't tell anyone cause we aren't sure but we are working on a plan to get back to Vegas after here. I am really hoping it works!
