hello 2010

i am READY for the best year of my life - are you? at the beginning of every year, i get so excited for the upcoming year & think how it can be better than the previous year. AND every year just gets better & better. i don't know if i just forget the downs throughout the year or if i just chose not to have them. i am not saying that 2009 was perfect - just like all of us i am sure we have a list of things that we rather not of dealt with. BUT as i look over the year it was SO VERY GOOD but 2010 is going to be better!

there is a LONG list of things for 2010 - some things i need to do, some things i want to do & some things i should do. i love,love,love list & i love the first of the year so i can make my master list for the year.

word for the year?? like some of you, i like to have a word to represent each year. a word that sums up what i would like to work on for that year or a word that summarizes the year, etc. 2009 word was BALANCE. i felt like i need more balance in my life. i felt overwhelmed with with having a 4th child & my work load & simply not enough hours in the day. i tried really hard to have BALANCE & it wasn't easy at times but at the end of the year - i see how everything is better with BALANCE.

my word for the year for 2010 is BETTER. i want to be BETTER at everything i already am. i have no desire at this point to add anything else in my life but i just want to be BETTER at what i already am.

i want to be a better wife.

i want to be a better mom.

i want to better a better child of God.

i want to have a better body.

i want to capture memories better (pictures, scrapbook, video, blog, etc)

i want to be a better friend, sister, daughter, grandaughter.

i want to help embellish IT! better.

i want to sleep better (i actually sleep really well just not long enough)

what's your word for the year?

i am excited about the year - excited to make things BETTER!
