each new year brings about an urge in me to be a better person. deep down, i know it's just another day like any other, but i can't control the desire to make lists, to organize, and to feel that i have a fresh start. i've been making lists. i even took every single one of greyson's books off his shelves (all 148 of them.... gasp!) i jotted down the titles, typed them up in word and printed them out. for what you ask? well, i want to make sure we get to all of them, not skipping a single one. why? because my number one, most important goal (btw-i don't do resolutions, i do goals) for 2006 is to be the best mama to my little gman. to read new stories to him everyday. to expose him to as many new (and familiar) words as his little ears can handle. it's that important.
my other goals
- to achieve toned arms again
- scrapbook more often
- splurge on good coffee every now & again
- to be a better friend, not just wife to jim
- to tackle one or two new recipes each week
- to master my camera (stop relying on auto)
- for jim & I to do our couples devotions -every night
- to make my bed everyday [ drywall mom] :)
- stop procrastinating
what are some of your goals for the new year?

Goodluck with those goals and happy new year.
Toned arms are good ;)
I love how you set goals like that :). Love you!
Tara, I agree with you on the good coffee part. No matter how much I try to think that McDonalds coffee will taste good, it will never happen. Starbucks coffee is my favorite right next to Gloria Jeans Coffee House.
I'm a big time list maker. List of everything and anything. I think it gives me a bit organization within my disorganization! I need to quite splurging on the good coffee. My 3 year old is way to familiar with the good people at Starbucks!!
I'm a HUGE procratinator!
Good luck with all your goals :)
Wow, we have everyone of those books as well, Birthday Monsters is our fav! Happy 2006!
Great list! I haven't really thought of any goals...just to be a wonderful mom when the time comes. That is all I can think about, when will she come? When will she come?!!! I replied back to you the other day, did you get it? I love the books too, reading to my baby will be a must!! :)
