Project: Simplify 2012


With nesting hormones already on the rise, plus with the added spring-time weather that has been teasing us here in Kentucky, my desire to redo some spots in our home before baby girl #2 arrives is definitely weighing on my mind. When I came across this declutter challenge today, I thought it'd be a great thing to join in on for the month of March.

I love that she has already posted the declutter spots so that I can be preparing ahead of time in my mind for what I'd like to accomplish in these rooms. Yay for spring cleaning!

Wanna join me?

Bible Reading Plan


As this new year has begun, I have been slow to work on new years resolutions due to having a pretty crazy schedule since returning from our Christmas trip to Georgia on new years eve. I started nannying full time again in our home and was preparing for the arrival of my parents for a short visit. It was a wonderful week but this week, I am ready to get into the swing of "normal" life again.

Among my resolutions this year is to read the Bible through. I have started this many times yet very sadly have failed to make it the whole way through in a year. :-( However, this year, I really want to make this happen! I am using The Legacy Reading Plan  found here which assigns books of the Bible per month to read. I believe this will help me because if I get behind it won't be so frustrating looking at all the many chapters I need to catch up on. Instead, I can just continue on for that book assigned to that particular month. In the past, I have definitely found my reading to be much more consistent when I took a book of the bible at a time vs. random chapters from various books.

I am really looking forward to growing in this way in the coming year! I know it will take much persistence and discipline from the Lord to make this happen (especially with baby #2 coming in May!!). Thankfully, the Lord's grace is sufficient! :-)

What plans have you found helpful?
