THREE LESSONS I LEARNED

1. Hide & seek is hilarious for all ages. // I’m not sure how it started, but sometime this month, we created a “game” of hiding a plush monkey in the most ridiculous of places.  He’d be hanging upside down from the chandelier, “trapped” in a mason jar, peeking out from the mantel garland, etc etc.  You’d never know where you’d stumble on him next!  All of the kids, big to little, loved coming up with new ways to hide him…me included!  (Tabitha wrote about a similar type game on her blog.  Highly recommend!)
2. Manuka honey is great for healing. // My son had a (spider?) bite that somehow got infected.  Since reading this book, I knew that I wanted to postpone prescribed antibiotics until absolutely necessary.  So we tried another homeopathic method!  As usual, I had very low expectations, but it actually helped a ton.  (I used this one.)
3. “You are relentlessly pursued and ridiculously celebrated by the Father.” // A line from the commentary part of Bible in a Year Day 318, regarding the prodigal son and his brother.  A good reminder.

FIVE “LITTLE PEOPLE” I SUPPORTED

1. Greeting cards from Phoebe & June
2. Goat milk soap from Borden Acres
3. Two books for my daughter from sellers on Pango Books
4. A vintage piece from a seller on etsy (I won’t link the shop because it took more than three weeks to ship and the communication was terrible.)
5. Milk and pig feed from a local farmer

FIVE GOALS FOR JANUARY REVIEWED

1. Propagate the fig trees. // Sadly, a deer got to my fig tree before I did and nibbled off most of the branches!  I wasn’t sure if propagating would help or harm, so I ended up leaving it alone.
2. ✔ Refocus on healthy habits. // A big yes for this one!  More details to come.
3. ✔ Write a least three things in my gratitude journal daily. // January had more of its share of struggles and this daily practice helped put things back in perspective.
4. Order birthday and different holiday cards for the year. // The entire year part of this task was just too big.  I did purchase cards for February, but will need to spread out the rest of the orders throughout the year.
5. ✔ Make curtains for the kitchen windows. // So excited about this little project.  It definitely added some coziness to the kitchen.

FIVE GOALS FOR FEBRUARY

1. Go on a date with my husband.
2. Start seeds under grow lights.
3. Send out Valentines to far-away family members.
4. Do a quick decluttering and then drop off the donations.
5. Choose a book for Lent.
