New Beginnings

I too fall victim to the New Year's Resolution game, but always lose. Can't seem to keep what I hope to keep. Maybe it's because I don't think of January 1st as much of new beginnings as I do Easter.

Sunrise service this morning was special. Just one year ago we were outside the crosses of the church being built on West Road. Today it was too windy to be out by the crosses, so we sat inside the education building as it's being constructed. Normally, 2-3 rows (just youth parents) were filled. Today was an entirely different story--they just kept bringing out chairs (brown and pink plastic ones--now that's another trip down memory lane!)

When we got home from church, I FINISHED a book I was reading, FINISHED laundry, STARTED AND FINISHED ironing, and FINISHED cleaning my half of the office. (Somehow, Ky has the bigger half to still clean...) With everything FINISHED, it's time to now BEGIN.

Begin what?
*finalizing graduation plans
*helping Ky plan her birthday with 4 amazing friends
*walking twice a day
*balancing writing with reading
*making summer plans

What are your beginnings?
