Happy New Year!

We ended 2010 with reflection and started 2011 with a renewed spirit!   It has been a great year, we are so thankful for the many blessings God has given our family.  I am not a huge goal setter, nor am I very big on new year resolutions.  This year however, I am dedicated to being available and present.  I will stop folding laundry or cleaning up to play with the girls, I will be in the moment, whatever that moment is.  This will be a challenge for me as I am ALWAYS planning ahead, and very Type A (pretty much a control freak)!  I will grow closer to God and let His presence be seen in me.  These are pretty big goals, expecially for someone that isn't huge on year-long lofty goals.   However, as I reflected on 2010, I realized that my best moments were when I wasn't in control at all, when I gave it all to God!  I hope you all had a great New Year's Day!  I did order one last birthday week gift for Scott......a bowl win for Bama!  Roll Tide! This year is off to a great start! Happy New Year......looking forward to 2011.
