Stand out this year with these festive ideas!
Long gone are the times when you could buy a hundred of identical Christmas cards from the bargain bin, scribble a quick generic message inside and be satisfied that you have played your part in spreading the Christmas spirit and seasons greetings to neighbors and friends.
Hello all, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I’m SOOO glad to be bringing in a new year, I just LOVE to have a fresh start :) I’m sure you’re sick of all the Christmas posts by now, but IR…

Today, you will be visited by the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. You know what, scratch that. We’re experiencing the present, and the future is too unpredictable. Let’s just focus on the past!
My favorite from J. Kirk Richards' inspiring series Wednesday morning text message to Taylor: Thank your coworkers for not pooing on the carpet 'Cause one of my coworkers--Roger to be exact--had just had an accident, which he proceeded to step in and track all over the upstairs. Awesome. This was just a day or two after Blaine had dumped a third of a gallon of milk out on the kitchen counter and floor and just a few hours before both boys made major mischief in my sewing stuff. {This is where my mom asks, 'Well what were they doing out of your sight?' and I reply, 'I have to go to the bathroom and take showers and help the baby sometimes! Give me a break!} By Wednesday evening I came unglued. "I hate my job!" I ranted to Taylor. "I can't get anything done around here because they mess things up faster than I can clean them. And they absolutely never listen to me. Never!" "Dear, can you please use a softer voice and fewer superlatives?" Taylor calmly asked. "No! I'm mad! And they aren't superlatives! They're true!" I barked back, irrational as ever. "I just don't know what to do! I don't know what to do!" It wasn't until the next morning that I had laughed at myself a little, calmed down a lot, and decided that it was time to come up with some solutions. I grew up with a mother who always said, "Every problem has a solution." She chanted that mantra to me all my life and now I repeat it to my own children. My sister, Liz, once told me: "It doesn't make sense for us mothers to throw our hands up and say 'I give up on this problem.' What if I had a corporate job? When something hard came up would I just sulk and tell the boss 'I quit?' Never! I would go back to my office and figure out a solution! Mothering is my job. When I meet a challenge, I have to find a way to make it better." Thursday morning email to Taylor: I am working on some solutions. Like I am going to keep the baby's room (where the sewing stuff is kept) and upstairs bathroom (where much water mischief takes place)locked. And I am going to try to nurse upstairs so the kids can play and I can see them. The other part of the solution is for me to a) stop having a panic attack every 5 minutes that my house doesn't look perfect b) remind myself that they are 3 and 4 years old and c) find the power to control myself and stop all the ranting and raving. So anyway, those are my goals. I don't hate my job. Not at all. I love it. I like it. I reverence it. In fact, it was the image at the top of this post that motivated my penance. I saw it Thursday morning and the reverence flooded over me. --anne

The same thing happens once every year. I announce to the family that it is time to get family photos taken...by me. A universal groan raises the roof, and all the griping begins. This sets the tone for our family photo shoot every.single.year. I think many of you mothers will relate to the ordeal, but those of you who: a) hire a photographer or go to a studio, or b) know how to operate your camera correctly may not.
