Happy New Year. 2011 is here and we welcome a new year and a new beginning. This holiday season was great and went by way too fast. Today was our first day back to school and work and so on and so on, and although it was rough on our little one to go back after 2 weeks home, I think the rest of us rolled into 2011 just fine. Jack is luckily staying with his Nanny and Papa this week because he doesn't have to go back to school until Thursday, so his vacation is still going strong. Lucky boy!
So 2011, This year I do not wish to make resolutions, but instead I want to spend each day being kind and encouraging to others around me. It occured to me during the break while talking and joking around that I do not wish to be 'known' for some of the things that I've been 'known' for before.. like "pulling a jennifer" in a store, or "being late" I think that I want people to remember me as someone that encouraged them. Oh sure, I'm sure people can say lots of good things, like.. 'she's a good mom... or she's a good teacher, .. or at work I'm kind of known for having cute handwriting, so I get called to write "cutesy" on several things or signs... but really do people think of me as an encourager to them??? I want that. I will work on encouraging this year. I hope I run into you for practice. If you see me, make sure to come and see me, so I can encourage you!
I will also try to keep up with my blog better too. Have a good 2011~~jen
