~Resolutions~

It's that time of year again.  Time for resolutions.  Here are mine for the year:

1.  Be thankful.  Always.  For everything!  

2.  Learn more about photography and my new camera.  I just bought a field guide specifically about my camera, so I have a good start!

3.  Go on more dates with my sweetie.  We only went on one date in all of 2008, and that was for our 10th anniversary.  We will spend more time together--just the two of us.  

4.  Enjoy more nature study with the girls.  I will be honest, I am not a big time nature girl.  I would rather curl up with a good book and a cup of hot chocolate.  But they love nature, and I am thankful for the beautiful world God has given us.  So we will explore it more. 

5.  Read good books!  I read a lot anyway, but this year I am going to read only good books.  If I read a few chapters, and hate it, I will not feel guilty about putting it aside and picking up something else.  I am also going to read some of the classics that I skipped in high school. 



Wow!  That should keep me busy.  

Any my word for 2009 is ENJOY!  I will enjoy my husband, my children, my home, my life.  I will always take the time to smile, laugh, and have fun!  I will embrace one of my favorite quotes from Emily Dickinson:  To live is so starling it leaves little time for anything else.
