LIFE: 2021 Word of the Year

Closing out a year is normally filled excitement and anticipation for all of the amazing things that are filling my calendar for that year but as you know- 2020. One major heart break that I had was the cancellation of my trip to Ghana, which really did not close down til about a month before take off. The nature of my choice of word was based on that trip- EXPLORE

How we explored in 2020:

  • Family walks on every square inch of the San Antonio River- Mission Reach trails. 
  • Daily walks around our apartment complex
  • Potty training-- enough said
  • The ways to stream church services 
  • How to do "camp at church"
  • Sea World and Zoo season passes 
  • Career as a virtual admin and project manager
Over all-- not the distant explorations that I was expecting to take, but still explored "home". 
Thinking about how I want to frame the next year, really had me perplexed on a word choice. I have not lost hope, I live each day through my almost three year olds eyes. 2020 was not a break or refresher for me or my family- but I am choosing my word, my goal for 2021 to be

Defined: an interval of rest or relief

I am choosing to let myself rest. I am choosing to slow down. I am choosing to take deep breaths. 
One thing that I have gotten far away from has been my daily devotion time- so I am aiming to respite by starting my day slow in His word. I will take time to paint my nails, to take a bath in silence, and to do a dance based workout class. 

2021, I will taken you on slow and steady.
2021, I will love you for all of your curves.
2021, get ready to take a nap or two.
