Always blogging

...in my head that is.  I wanted to take a nap today, but I'm also impatient, and it took longer than 10 minutes to fall asleep on the couch; so I'm blogging instead.

So here's to a whirlwind of posts that have been simmering on the back burner of my brain today!

Since this blog is mainly for family & friends who we don't get to see regularly, it ends up being a lot of pictures and stories about the kiddies.  That's totally fine with me, but as part of our yearly update, I think I'll attempt to let you in on the secrets of the mama bear.

Twelve dreams for 2012:

  • To live abundantly; to thrive.  I want to get the most out of each day I have.
  • To grow in grace, in prayer, and in thankfulness.
  • To have a better garden this year than I did last year.
  • To recognize beauty.
  • To run.  More than once every three months.  (That should be easy, right?  Maybe twice every three months.)
  • To make Sabbath a regular part of my family's routine.
  • To run through the sprinklers with the little people.  (But not yet.)
  • To be a better friend.
  • To find 5 new ways to serve my husband.
  • To read 10 books.
  • To do something with each of my siblings.
  • To have our neighbors over for dinner.

And I really want to shop at the farmer's market, so I guess it's a baker's dozen.

Although I do want to put some effort into accomplishing my goals, I like this haphazard approach.  With so many to choose from, I ought to succeed somewhere.  I'll keep you posted.

Happy Friday!
