i'm a SAHM...i have 4 kids and a hub, so seriously, making standard resolutions for the new year just aren't feasible. instead, i am making "reality resolutions" this year.
i will shower before 2 pm, 4 out of 7 days each week.
i will continue to praise god for the health and joy of my family...remembering that in late 2007 and into 2008 i was pre-eclamptic, on bed rest, diabetic, hypertensive, hospitalized a number of times, and uncertain of the health of sofie and myself.
i will get at least one real picture of paige every month, without her hands in front of her face.
i will eat something before 1 pm, 3 out of 7 days each week....that is not chocolate.
{espresso beans will not count}
i will wear real clothes and not jammie pants 4 out of 7 days a week during the day. nighttime is a free-for-all and off limits.
i will show up to high school service/my hs small group on time 80% of the time...but i will have coffee in hand...and i will drink it in front of everyone. :)
i will not laugh out loud when my kids fall and they are not hurt...most of the time.
i will work out when i feel like it.
i will complain incessantly that i don't have time to workout.
i will love my husband more each day and see the blessing and strength he brings to me in spite of his spoon-clicking, cereal eating ways.
when i feel the need to get really angry at something my kiddos have done or said, i will remember that it is blog worthy and smile.
i will continue to appreciate and forgive others, and myself!
happy new years resolutions to you!
oh, make this one...join angie in wordful wednesday's!

You and your hubs make a beautiful couple!
But seriously....real clothes instead of PJ's? Highly overrated.

And yeah - what is it with the spoon clicking? I mean, is the cereal THAT GOOD that they want to eat the spoon too and scrape their teeth off?! UGH! It makes me crazy! LOL Ok, sorry, I'm not being supportive of your change just adding fuel to your fire. My bad. Good luck with the clicking, just know I have your back. ;>)
