Go. Read it. Now. You'll be glad you did.
I won't be making any resolutions this year. Their dumb anyway...I mean, who really keeps them or thinks twice about them after 2 months? And all you people who are now crowding me at the gym - GO HOME! I'm serious. I was there ALL last year. I kept going during the holidays when you were "too busy" to get some exercise. Now you decide you want to use your gym membership just because it's January and I am stuck waiting for a treadmill. I'm all for good health, and taking care of yourself, but seriously, do it at home. Or wait til April...
ok, where was I? Oh yeah. Jamie's motto for 2011...
Will I Regret This?
Will I regret leaving the dirty dishes and reading to my kids instead?
Will I regret taking some time for me each day, to better myself physically and/or spiritually?
Will I regret laughing at the little messes my kids make rather than yelling at them?
Will I regret taking the time to do little things for Jared that will mean a lot to him but might seem meaningless to me?
Will I regret enjoying every smile, giggle, and new phase as Tessa continues to grow waaay too quickly?
You get the idea.
I'm pretty sure that if I ask myself this question on a continual basis, and think about the outcome I want to achieve as a wife, mother, and for ME...it's going to be a good year!
Here's to 2011 and NO REGRETS!
*And when I've forgotten about this, come April...please remind me :)
**Or even better, if you're one of my crafty, creative friends, why don't you make me a cute sign with this on it?!

Alright craft night for Jan. (remember we were going to start these . . .) is your motto on a glass block to leave sitting out in your kitchen all year long!
Done and Done!
