New Years

 

 

It is crazy to think it's already 2014.  I am excited for a new year and the adventures it will bring. 2014 is the year we will start "normal life" as our family moves to Lewiston and Leif begins his employment.  2014 is the year, my twins become Sunbeams at church, and start the Moms-as-teachers-program.   2014 is the year we will go to Disney World with family, and then move closer to that family.  I am thinking this is going to be a great year!!!!

 

And to start off the year, there is no better way than with New Year's Resolutions.  I have never really enjoyed the New Year's Holiday itself.  In fact Leif had to work this year, and Eli feel asleep so I did too.  But I have always enjoyed contemplating my life and making Goals.  I believe in goal making.  Last year my resolution was to read the Old Testament cover to cover.  I finished it!!  It was boring at times, but it was accomplished.    This year I have a very similar but more intense goal.

 

For 2014 I am going to be more diligent in my scripture reading.  I will study (not read) my scriptures for 30 minutes a day.  I know that by studying each day for a set amount of time, my life will be blessed.  I know that my trial will become easy, and that I will find answers to my questions.  By doing this for 365 days, I am hoping that scripture study will become a habit.  And reading scriptures is a commandment, they are Gods words.  It's something that everyone should be doing everyday anyhow.  And I am very excited to start.
