One Little Word:2010

I went through lists and list of words and though there are many great words that would work for me, I decided on this one:

Thrive
1 : to grow vigorously : flourish
2 : to gain in wealth or possessions : prosper
3 : to progress toward or realize a goal despite or because of
circumstances —often used with on


It speaks to me on so many levels...
I want to thrive. In everything I do.

I want to Thrive in my relationship with God.
I want to Thrive in my marriage.
I want to Thrive as a mother.
I want to Thrive and not just survive.

Now I just need to decide how I want to display this word in my house as a reminder for this next year.

Happy New Year friends!

I need to decide cause its DRIVING me nuts!

Oh my gosh, I love your word of the year. That is such a good idea. I'm probably gonna subconsciously use your word. heh.

The most important thing she’d learned over the years was that there was no way to be a perfect mother and a million ways to be a good one."
