au revoir twenty eleven

i say it at the end of every week, month & year. time is flying!

2011 was a year of surprises & growth. my shortcomings are glaring, but i know i gave a darn good fight & i feel the ignition to do better. that's what i love about the new year & all it represents.

in 2012 i resolve to read more books, eat healthier & exercise, speak kindly of everyone, be a more loving wife, to always keep doing and avoid paralyzing discouragement. to reach for my scriptures, for my Heavenly Father, for the atonement. to be purified in it.

to be a reliable friend, an ever-present mother. the kind who shows her boys how to enjoy life. 

the kind of woman who loves fiercely and lets the unimportant settle where it may.

while i already wrote my resolutions down with a twistable crayon, #classy, i'm excited to print off this Resolution Kit designed by Run Lucas Run to make it extra official!

hello 2012, happy to have you!
