Reflections on a New Year

I haven’t blogged for a while. Purposefully. I’ve been doing lots of reflecting and thinking about the new year. I’ve been pondering my goals and making lists of projects I want to accomplish. I’ve been praying a lot about my role as a SAHM and what that needs to look like with two kids. God has really been tugging at my heart and speaking to me about the way I manage my home and raise my children. Which is another blog post entirely. But I realize that I am in a season of transition. And that affects my business and my blogging. Not sure in what ways exactly. I just know that it does. So please know that I am still here. I am just taking some time to reflect, pray, and see what the Lord has for me, my family, and RBP.

 WHEW. With that said now I can share some of my goals and dreams for 2012. It is going to be a big year for us. We are on the vulnerable to move list. For all my civilian readers this means that the Air Force will be sending us somewhere new this summer. We don’t know where or when. We just know that the time is vastly approaching. I think this move plays a large role in my goals and projects for this year. Allow me to share with you some of the things I want to accomplish this year. I share them to keep myself accountable. And to possible encourage and inspire you out there to make goals too!
