New Years Resolutions

I've been thinking long and hard about what my New Years resolutions should be. There are so many things that I want to change/do, but if there are too many then I am afraid that I will resolve to do nothing.

So, instead I will pick one in each category of my life. That is hopefully doable.

First, my family. I resolve to pay more quality time and attention to my husband and kids. A once a month date night, even if it's just sitting on the couch watching a movie after the kids go to bed, instead of watching our separate iPods/iPads/TVs. A day with each child each month for some one-on-one attention, that they deserve.

Second, our household. I resolve to organize the house and keep it clean. My kids won't know how to do either if I don't do it and I don't want them to have to learn that later on, it's a difficult task to learn. Plus, everyone is less stressed with a clean house where they can find exactly what they are looking for when they want it.

Third, my new business venture. I recently starting selling Thirty-One bags and am loving it. I love the products, they are quality and I truly believe that they can help people to be organized in a fashionable way without spending a lot of money. So, I am going to resolve to really make a go of it and not give up, but push harder when an obstacle arises. I know that it will make me feel more like I am contributing to our household income, get me out of the house and interacting with other adults, and give me something for myself.

Lastly, my spirituality. I have never been very forthcoming with my faith, but I do have it. I resolve this year to get more in touch with what I believe and what I want my children to believe. I want them to feel there is hope, and love, beyond just what you can see and touch. I want them to feel the faith in their hearts like I do and know that it's ok.

Last year was wonderful and I am so grateful! I know that this year will be exceptional too! Happy 2013!
