Hearts for Home – Continuing the Trend Edition

Posted on | July 8, 2009

My goals for this week:

1) Stay on top of the dishes. UGH. :P
2) Work with Greg to reduce excess fats out of our diet.
3) Be cheerful! I’m Mama to the Cutest Girl In The World. :-)
4) Reduce clutter in the bedroom by putting it back where it goes, and not using the bedroom as a catch-all.

What is Hearts for Home? Gae sums it up nicely:

In today’s busy and aggressive society mothers at home are not given much encouragement to be committed to their role in being home.

In my weekly ‘Hearts for Home’ post I am encouraging myself and others to commit to thinking about what 4-6 things we can do each week to bring our thoughts, prayers and actions to keeping our ‘Hearts for Home’.

I am praying that a spirit of gentleness, generosity in thoughts and time along with loveliness and grace would lead us to be all that God wants us to be.

I pray also that each person involved in ‘Hearts for Home’ would also pray for any others involved as well.

    Hey Kim, just thought I’d check in, say hi, & let you know I will probably – God willing! – be spending some time at an RC monastery in mid-August. Pray for me!
