My New Years Resolution



I'm not one for usually making a New Years Resolution since I often do not stick to them, but this year I made one and I am planning on sticking to it. So, what is this resolution, you ask? No, it is not to lose weight (though after gaining 48lbs in pregnancy I definately need to) but rather to make sure every member of my family and friends receive a hand made birthday card that arrives on time. Sorry Aunt Kathy since yours is the 1st, it will be a day or two behind. :) I am so bad at remembering birthdays. I really feel like it is important to make the person feel loved and thought of on their special day. I know that I love getting messages on the machine and cards in the mail on my birthday so I need to be good about remembering everyone elses. Don't worry, I wont be offended if you do not remember mine (though it is Feb 27th) so do not feel guilty when you receive a beautiful creation in the mail on your day, but have forgotten mine this year. Just kidding :) I am really hoping to continue building friendships, rekindle lost ones, and make new ones this year. I have not always been good at keeping in touch and reaching out to begin new friendships. It has always been a struggle for me as I am an introvert and not a social butterfly. But, as I enter my 30th year, I am realizing more and more that family and friends are one of the most important things in life and I need to devote myself to them.
