a new year

Dear 2010,

We welcome you with open arms and are excited to see what God has in store!  Our theme for you is DISCIPLINE.  We desire that this will come in many forms, and we know it will require some serious work and commitment, so get ready to see some change.  In no particular order, here are some things that you can expect  to see in our little corner of the world.

~from a Martha-type organization overhaul of all closets and drawers, and a general getting rid of things we don't use.

We already got rid of the "junk drawer"!

~to eating more wholesome foods...

(Have you seen this movie??? I know its a book - but I'm not sure I could have stomached a whole book.  WOW.)

~to the inevitable workout goal



~to a stronger, more unceasing prayer life.  taking the time to listen for His voice throughout each day

*disclaimer: I know this is not really God in this picture


~to teaching, loving our son and treasuring each moment with him and each other


  ~to taking more time to rest (rather than just veg)
~actively investing in precious relationships with those we love and those God has called us to love
~saving more money
~and making sure we schedule a vacation (or two).

Of course I could go on and on. There are other things like flossing more, hitting the snooze button less often, wearing my retainer, blogging consistently, working on better posture, cleaning the bathtub more, etc.  But I think you get the point.  We are determined to work on these goals and live this year with purpose.  No absent-mindedly wandering around for us, mister.   Be on the lookout.

Resolved,
the p's
