As the beginning of the year has come to each one of us, we stop and reflect on those resolutions that need to be made. We think about the reorganizing that needs to be done. We dedicate ourselves to a new way of thinking and a commitment to break all old, distasteful habits. I set forth on the same adventure here in my own home . . . but where to start?
I will begin my journey in 2010 to the tune of this very simple, very profound, very NECESSARY prayer.
I saw this quote on a T-shirt sometime ago and thought it the perfect gift . . . For myself!
"Dear Lord,
Keep your arm around my shoulder . . .
and your hand OVER MY MOUTH!"
Holy Yahweh, You are almighty and may You alone reign in my heart, in my mind and may only Your blessed words issue from my ever moving mouth. Lord, thank you for Your mercy and patience with an ever babbling child that I can tend to be. Grant me Your grace in learning to be still and silent. Thank you for all You have done to quiet my spirit and mind.
In Jesus' name - Amen. Amen.

Menu Plan Monday: Making Breakfast FIRST!
And we are stocked up and ready to roll this week with an updated menu!
We are keeping with some new eating styles that I started with the family last year and trying a new approach this year.
We are changing the main approach to eating for health reasons. I believe that the breakfast meal should be the largest and most important meal. We have a tendancey as a busy family to eat it and run. I am getting up a full hour early this month to try our new Breakfast Experiment. Eat breakfast like "royalty", Eat lunch like a "prince" and dinner like a "pauper". We will now be making breakfast the principle meal of the day. I believe this will help with energy levels and digestive issues. Will give it a go and let you know.
