Our Hopes And Dreams For 2019
As is our tradition on New Year's Eve, we looked back at our hopes and dreams for the year that was ending and then shared our hopes and dreams for the coming year. We realized that we didn't make many o four hopes and dreams from 2018 happen, but gracious, we are super hopeful that we can make at least a few of the ones we have for this year a reality! Some of them will definitely be easier than others but hopefully we can make them all come true!
We also chose our watchword for the year. This year our watchword is "gentleness". Now, those who know us well will most likely be surprised that this is our word since we are a pretty gentle family as it is. However, over the last half of 2018 it became increasingly evident that we all needed to be much more gentle in how we treat ourselves and how we respond to each other. We have done a lot of talking about those two topics in the last few months, and so, when it came time to choose our family word for the year gentleness just felt right.
We hope that your twenty-nineteen is off to a great start! May this be a year of gentleness for all of us! xo

Our Intentions And Watchword
Our intentions have been named and our watchword has been chosen (hope). After all, in the words of First Lady Michelle Obama: "What else do you have if you don't have hope? What can you give your kids if you can't give them hope?" In a year that feels so very uncertain, hope seemed like a very fitting watchword for our family. We wish you a 2017 full of love, joy, peace, compassion and hope. xo

Our Hopes For 2015
Along with these hopes for the new year our watchword this year is connection. Connection not only with each other (which is already very strong) but also with our extended family, our friends and our community. xo
