Creating is refreshing to me. I am definitely starting 2010 with much inspiration and ambition. For me the new year gives me a chance to set goals for the year challenging me to be more disciplined. I know it is just another day in the scope of things but for an organized mind such as mine the first day of the year is a perfect timing to implement new ideas. One of those is to start journaling more often. I found this great idea for making these little notebooks similar to the moleskin version. I have always loved these but not the price for a few sheets of paper and a cardboard cover. So yesterday I went to work and constructed two of these lovely little books. My plan is to make twelve and fill one up each month. I am one who like to complete projects so having twelve small book rather than one big book is very appealing to me. We will see how this goes but it sounds good reading it on the screen.

I am so thankful for the creation the Lord has made for us to be encouraged, amazed, and inspired by. These little birds were so fun to watch as Chael and I played in the snow.
