On My Mind...

I've had a lot on my mind lately. It's been a busy last couple of weeks, lots of lessons learned. Good times and some hard ones mixed in. Here are some things that are on my mind. I figure why not make good use of my blog, right?

I've been thinking about:

• How thankful I am to have such amazing friends in my life. Ones who truly love me and trust me. Friends that meet different needs and are a gem in their own right. Love them all.
• How to streamline things in my household. Getting organized and making sure everything gets done.
• The fact that my to-do list can never be completed...there is always 2 things to add to each one crossed off...and how much that bothers me.
• About the fact that I can't possibly please everyone and not everyone will approve of me or my family...and that's ok. God knows where my heart is and that's who I strive to please.
• The fact that there are times that I just need to keep my mouth shut. Most of the time actually.
• Trying to eat more protein and less carbs.
• How much I love iced green tea and fish.
• Working through "Power of a Praying Wife" the book.
• How I am more comfortable with who I am than I have ever been in my whole life. I can accept my strengths and weaknesses and work on things I can change, yet accept things I can't.
• How grown up my neice and nephews are and how wonderful they were with Jaxon this weekend when we stayed with them. (See below)
• How cute Jaxon is with his new "puppy" we got him for Valentine's Day. (See below)
