2012

It's been a very long time since I've posted and I hope to do a better job of posting in 2012. A friend had an interesting blog post the other day. (I would link to the post if I could--but I can't figure out how to do that...) She's picking a word as her goal for the year. I've pondered this for the last week and decided that my word for the year is going to be:

Simplify

As I try to organize my life, I will also try to simplify. As I try to choose the best things, I will simplify. As I try to decide how to use my time, I will look for simple additions that make my heart happy. I hope that at the end of 2012, I will have simplified my life and will have kept the very best of what I have and gotten rid of the rest. Hopefully that simplification will lead to more time with these people:

I love them all and they are part of the "best" that makes my heart happy. I can't wait until Darin joins us at the end of the summer. He's been missed.
