Shallow and Deep Resolutions

What did I do on New Years? I ordered pizza and buffalo wings and stayed at home all weekend by myself sick! I was miserably sick and the family went to Memaw's house! I just couldn't make the trip. I have been home all weekend alone! I watched three movies, read a book, studied, worked, and now that I am feeling better I may get some cleaning done.  I missed spending time with Memaw and Annie. I hate that we all couldn't be together this holiday.  Chad took the kids with Sandy and Harry and I have been getting the best videos all weekend! They seem to have fun without me...imagine that!

Who is to say what is important and what is not important in one's resolution. Some would say to make a resolution to be  skinnier is "shallow" and one would say that to be a "better person" is subjective. I am going to write my resolutions and then you can judge for yourself...this is a blog...everyone judges blogs. That should be a resolution...not to judge! HA!

1. To not be the fattest bridesmaid in my sister's wedding! This includes clean eating and more gym.
2. I feel like 1. interrupts my 2. I love spending time with my kids doing activities and adventures. The best time to do them is during the best gym time. I plan on figuring out how to seize the time I have with my kids and go to the gym daily.  Oh, how I love spending my time with Harry and Georgia Kelley.
3. To constantly pray and model that my kids be a light. That is really all I want. I just want my kids to be a light when they get big.  I am going to work on modelling that more. This may come with some pain. I say pain because I may have to cut some things to keep the darkness out.
4.  To cook more and eat out less.
5. To juggle work and home better.
6. To love on my husband more and make in the center of attention when he gets home.  He seems to make our kids the center of attention when he gets home. 
7. To continue my in depth study of the OT. I took all my Bible classes in college on the NT and how to teach children the Bible. Now I am getting this strong foundation on the OT and it is making the NT so much more clear!  Although, the more I read the more ignorant I feel!
8. To spend at least thirty minutes a day studying God's word with Harry. I usually use Georgia Kelley's nap time to get things done and occasionally spend QT time with Harry teaching...I want to switch this!
9. Redecorate Harry's room.
10. Find a swimsuit I like!
There a few other things I wouldn't mind happening but I am going to count my blessings now!  We had a wonderful 2011 and I love this time in life.
