New Years Resolution

I started my resolutions with a few areas that I want to work on and decided there were some real specifics that I could add. Here goes:
-Creating daily routine for family and self... As the mother of twins, I need to be awake, showered and dressed by 8am. I feel better and can get more done it I accomplish that in the morning!
-Creating healthy nutritious meals and opportunities for exercise for myself and family...Cook at home more!I really like to cook, I just don't like to think things up. I am going to work from a menu and Josh has said he will try really hard to make suggestions.
-Finding free time for myself, reading or posting blogs...This is a little harder for everyone. Thank goodness I have such a supportive family and husband. Post more on the blog. I know I have said it before but we bought a new router and I think it is better. I can't stand not sharing pictures of the my precious gang.
Keeping our home clean, organized and beautiful... Every morning and evening empty sink and clean kitchen. Tired or not, I always feel better starting fresh.
Love my family to the fullest... I have had such get joy in the last few years, I need to remind myself daily to enjoy it.
Work on compassion: random acts and courtesies for others...Live the life I want to live. Be the person who says please and thank you. Act as an example for my children the kind of person I want them to be.
Cultivate rituals and traditions... still thinking through...
Make more time for friends... I have to be a planner. I do better with a plan and feel better. I want to schedule my next activity with my firneds when we get together. This will help me stay connected.
