The first day of the year and I am off to a great start.  I started a couple new reading plans and one is coordinated with my weight loss goals.  It is called, "Made to Crave" and you can find the short 21 day devotional at youversion.com-  https://www.youversion.com/reading-plans/419-made-to-crave-21-day-challenge?day=1

The most important thing when I am pursuing getting fit is not necessarily because I want to look and feel good (it helps!!!) but more importantly I want to crave my savior more then I crave food.  I am very blessed since I do not feel I have used food as a comfort thing nor do I think I crave food all the time.  I am more of the average female who has a few days a month with cravings.  

1/1/13
I can't believe I am putting this out for all to see...
Weight: 122- in 2012 I was at 117 but did gain some back!  THIS YEAR no gaining!  
Goal: 110

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
