Mommy Blog Meme - Looking to 2010

I decided to try out my first meme ever! This one happens to be located at momdot.com.

Want to join in? Go
here to learn how and to view the weekly list Small Talk Six topics for 2009.

Today’s topic is “6 things you are looking forward to in 2010.” You can answer this with a list of 6 words, 6 phrases, 6 sentences, 6 paragraphs, 6 photos, 6 videos, etc . . .

This past year passed so quickly with Mat getting laid off, Abby's first birthday, Mat landing his "dream" job, relocating to from California to North Carolina, and relying heavily on Jeremiah 29:11.

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. -Jeremiah 29:11

We are really looking forward to the following in 2010:

1. Abigail. Watching my daughter grow, mature, learn to talk, refine many of her skills, and have so much fun while doing it.

2. Mathew. Growing in Christ alongside my husband of five years and spending quality time with him and with our family.

3. Christ. Deepening my faith in and commitment to Jesus. We hope to find a church family to call home.

4. Materialism. Fully give up all traces of materialism in my life...I hope. If anyone has any tips, I'd love to hear them.

5. North Carolina. Developing new or closer friendships.

6. Proverbs 3:5-6. Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
