Can you identify a single word that sums up what you want for yourself in 2009? Over at Tip Junkie, Laurie is hosting "Word of the Year"...Check it out HERE.
"A single word can be a powerful thing. It can be the ripple in the pond that changes everything. It can be sharp and biting or rich and soft and slow."~Qoute on Tip Junkie.
My Word:
Compassionate
~sympathetic consciousness of others' distress
together with a desire to alleviate it ~
I want to be more compassionate towards other people. I have a tendency to get caught up in my own "stuff". I just want to slow down and look around~perhaps I can really help another person. I can make more phone calls, sit down to talk or simply send a card.
Maybe....I can do this...Compassionate.
What's your word?

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Compassionate is a great word and was high on my list of choices. Good luck.

This is a good goal for 09 for me too! I could use some more compassion. Georgia-Kate's room is so cute!
That is such a great word. Here's to 2009 and many opportunities to show compassion.
I love the word you picked! I, too, would like to be more compassionate this year. I am good about sending cards but not so good about making a simple phone call!
Your kids are adorable too! It's so nice to meet you in the Land of Blog!
I love it. I am thinking about mine right now. Random question- did your first year with your second child go by so much faster than your first year with your first child? I feel like Lala was just born yesterday, but here she is, almost 1...it makes me sad! =)
Blessings,
Megan
