Thought I would write these down so they are somewhere I can look back and see how I did!
1. Read the Bible every day. - This is something I have always tried to do, but seems to come and go in phases. Micah and I both made this our resolution and are keeping each other accountable. It is helping a lot!
2. Be a better wife. - Here is an area I know I will always be able to improve. And I am starting now! I want to be more patient, more gracious, and more joyful to serve Micah. He is the most wonderful husband and deserves the most wonderful wife. I know he already thinks I am but I want to be better so that our marriage becomes more and more the picture of Christ's love for the church.
3. No more Dr. Pepper. - Or any other soda! As we get nearer to the time we will start our family I want to get my body to its most healthy state. (No, not yet!)
4. Less Sugar. - Kinda the same as #3. Just want to be healthier. And any of you who know me know I LOVE sugar. Candy, cookies, ice cream - you name it! Frozen York Peppermint Patties, Nerds and M&M's are pretty much irresistible for me!
5. Be Content. - This is probably the toughest for me. I have such a hard time not looking forward to the future. I love our life together so much, it's just so hard not to get impatient about all the exciting things to come - babies, our first house, etc. I want to be completely content with where God has us. I know he is using this time for us to build our marriage, community and teach us so much.
So I think that is it! I think I will do better at sticking to these than ever before. So nice to have a husband I love to keep me accountable!
Good resolutions! Don't be too hard on yourself though. :) Love you.
