Happy New Year’s!

Just a couple of pretty things for you to look at this day.

I hope you have a wonderful 2010!
My New Year’s Resolutions for this year? I guess you’d call them phrases or ideas, but it sums up where my thoughts are:
- waste not, want not
- debt free
- train up a child in the way he should go

About Lynn
I am the mother of four delightful children: a 23-year-old son, a 20-year-old son, a 17-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly 13-year-old daughter. I share an apartment home with my 17-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter. My little home on the internet is called Rose Cottage because of my love for gardening, roses, and all things romantic and Victorian. Welcome.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I do medical transcription from home. My hobbies include making sweet little dolls from clay who are named and have their own stories to tell. I also make old-fashioned brooches. These are for sale in my Etsy shop.
For 13 years continuously, I homeschooled some or all of our four children, but the time came that our homeschool had to be closed. It was the end of a beautiful chapter in my life. I will always be a strong supporter of homeschooling and I will continue to review books and maintain my homeschool website, The Healthy Homeschool.

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884
What You Do Sow a thought, reap an action.
Sow an action, reap a habit.
Sow a habit, reap a character.
Sow a character, reap a destiny.

Happy New Year, Lynn! I like your resolutions – very basic and to the point. Mine are to have a more disciplined prayer life, to make better use of my time, and to enjoy my daughter more. May the Lord grant us His grace and equip us to fulfill His desires for us.
Dear Lynn,
Thanks for the pretty pictures~Are these from your own collection?
Your resolutions sound wonderful to me! Something good to meditate on.
Love,
Marqueta
Your “ideas” are just what all of us should think about for this new year.
The pictures are lovely…wishing you a prosperous and blessed 2010!

Emily, you have some fine resolutions as well!
Marqueta, yes, they are old postcards from my collection. I love old graphics.
Maria, thank you. Happy New Year to you too, for all of 2010 and then some!
