At the beginning of every year I go into reflection and prayer about the things I did the last year and the things I want to accomplish the next year. I think about the things that I did well and the things I can improve on in the coming year.
This year Kyle and I really worked on our marriage and perfecting "the magic", also known as communication. Good communication has been something we really strive for all the time. We resolve the little issues so they don't build up into bigger conflicts. We also just show everyday that we love and respect each other. We work as a family to get things done around the house and just try to be really considerate of the other person.
One thing I am really glad we started doing this year was volunteering at our church's middle school ministry. Transit at Watermarke Church has been such a blessing to me and Kyle. We both each lead a middle school small group during the Sunday service that includes worship and a message then we break into our small groups. From donuts, to fun worship music, to relevant messages for their lives it all helps create an inviting environment that the youth really look forward to every Sunday.
Of course there are things we can work on like saving money, being more neat around the house, getting to bed earlier, and exercising more. I really try to live a life I can be proud of and leave a legacy of someone who made this world better. I want to make a difference in the lives of people around me. I want to give more than I take and be a loyal friend. If you know me hopefully you can say this is true.
