Looking Back... 2012

What a year 2012 was! I just flipped back through all of my photos from 2012 and my heart was swelled with joy and gratitude. We are so so blessed. With love, family, friends and our Savior. I remember staying up late the evening of January 1st last year and almost filling up a whole yellow notebook with family goals, personal goals, work out goals and business goals.

Setting my yellow notebook aside, I accomplished my goal of running a half marathon and I was so so blessed beyond my wildest dreams in my business. Our family grew and this year was such a year of deep growth for Drew and I.
Needles to say 2012 carried on without ever having to look back at my yellow notepad.

This year I jotted a few things down in my journal that I would love to work on in my life (for example. pray more, read more, spend more time reading to my kids...ya know) but I really want 2013 to simply be another rich year. Full of growth. Full of laughter. Of tears that teach us lessons and falling downs that teach us to get up better each time.

My kids teach me so much each day. They teach me how to love. They teach me how to have fun. They teach me how to laugh...how to cry. They make me want to be better. How great is the gift of parenthood? Really... lets just bask here for a moment.

My little artist ;) "I paint mommy??"
I am so excited with what 2013 has to hold and I hope I can look back and feel even richer in love then I do today.
