…Happy 2013 my friends!
May it BE all that you hope for filled with
good health, true happiness and a whole bunch of love and laughter.
I love the word “BE”.
While many of my friends were busy planning their “word of the year”, i struggled a little to come up with that word before January 1st.
I just couldn’t embrace a word that really spoke to me at this point in my life.
I am so very blessed and content and i needed a word that reminded me to savor life’s moments.
My 2013 “life word” is “BE”….
…it’s my favorite word…it speaks to my soul….we have so much to BE every day.
This year i will BE happy, healthy, content, curious, and prayerful.
I will BE grateful, kind, content, quiet and patient.
And this year i will BE a mother in law!
…I will just BE…
…i will BE who i was created to BE…
(and i mean it!)
….and set the world on fire!
What will you BE in 2013?
…be blessed…
