Newer Year Resolutions

So last year I had some pretty successful resolves for the New Year.

I was not able to memorize "Handlebars" by the Flobots...

but I am all about the second chances.

New Year, New Resolves 

1. learn morse code

2. call grocery stores "markets"

3. take more hugs and give more smiles

4. bake {but mostly eat} more pie

lemon merengue, obviously

Joking-a-la-zoking aside, my motto for this year is this:

"Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it is in your power to act." 

Proverbs 3:27

I truly desire to enter this year with a heart and mind that is generous with the

  goodness 

I have been given.

I think this starts with praying constantly for a sense of

 humility

so that I can understand what I have been given.

{perfecting the strawstache last year... it's a good omen}

{in awe but passionate about doing something about it is this Maddy heart}

Simple Pleasures of a Summer Day
