happy new year!



Happy 2013! Do you like to make new years resolutions? I love it. I have always loved making goals and lists. I do it all the time! I do it all year round, but there is just something different about the fresh start of a new year. My focus for this year is the quote above from Mother Teresa. I have found that being a stay at home mom can be rather isolating at times. It is so easy to get caught up in the menial day to day tasks and feel sorry that my life isn't more exciting. I find myself getting caught up in my own thoughts too often and I forget to look out and serve others.

I want to be kinder to others. I want to be less judgmental. I want to send more letters. I want to remember birthdays. I want to host people in my home. I want to be more connected to those around me. I want to have kinder thoughts and then ACT on them... even if my actions aren't perfect {I've been thinking about this post for weeks, and just can't get it out of my mind}. That is my overarching goal for this year. I hope to be a better friend, sister, daughter, wife and mother because of it.
