Happy New Year!

I'm not one to make resolutions. I tend to set goals for myself in the areas of spirituality, family, friends, marriage, self, and home. These reflection questions were posted at (in)courage. I'm going to take some time today to reflect on these questions with my husband. There's also a download at simplemom.net of the questions.
