I resolve to.........

I always feel like New Years Resolutions are a joke. People vow to, work out more, or eat better, quit biting their nails, drink less etc etc etc. But this year I do have some things that I really want to work on, things that I am currently working on.  So here goes:

I resolve to:

1. Be the best mom that I can be

•  I want to play with my kids more, let them get messy without worrying about cleaning it up.
• Continue to help educate them daily in some way and to help them grow spiritually. 
• Have more patience
• Make sure they know that I love them, not just by telling them but making sure I show it daily. 
• Continue to have consistent discipline so that they are sure of their expectations. 

2. Be the best wife that I can be:

• My goal this year is to wake up early enough to spend time with my husband before he goes to work. Maybe even make his lunch (Don't get your hopes up just yet though Dylan!)
• Make sure to make time for him, go on more dates.

3. Grow Spiritually:

• We don't currently go to church but lately we both have had a pull to start going. I am not sure where we will end up or if we will actually start going this year but am excited to see what God has in store for us. 
• Start sharing the bible with the kids more. I have never read the whole thing cover to cover but my goal is to start doing so.
•  I want to start memorizing bible verses and helping the kids to do so also.

4. Worry less:

• I want to work on being content in what we have and in what we don't have. 

I might not lose the extra weight that I have stored up or start eating better, because God knows I LOVE sweets.......brownies, cookies, ice cream, butterfingers.  I just want to be a better me so that I can be better for my family.
