Cheers!

So, my break if officially over! I'm so sad to see it go, but I know there are other ones ahead :) I have been so blessed to have two weeks to refocus and see what I really want to work on in my life. I have come to appreciate my husband more and found new ways to show my appreciation-it was so sweet to have the extra time! Not saying anything {really, I'm not}, but I told Chris that as soon as possible I'd like to have the opportunity to stay at home {for maternal things- wink, wink}. I know its where I should be eventually. I have had such a hard time thinking this was an option for me my whole life-I never wanted to stay home...I always wanted to focus on being an independent woman and have a family, too. This might sound bad, but whenever I would hear a talk on how a woman belongs in the home, I thought that's not for me. I've experienced a complete 180, and have the strongest desire to teach my own children and see them grow; to be there when they come home from school, to have fun adventures planned everyday, whether its playing a game at home or going to the zoo...plus I really want my husband to think that I am the best wife/mom in the world (the extra time at home would help). Anywho, there are big things ahead for Chris and I...I know there has to be...and that makes me so excited, anxious, and scared all at once.
Cheers to a new year!


P.S. This year I want to try Project 365. This is an ambitious goal, but something I really want to do. Maybe I'll modify and do weekly pics, but nonetheless here's to the trend-pictures will be in this year!
