Like the past two years, I'm entering into the new year with a word that is meant to guide me; a word that represents what I want for the year, what I'm going to strive for and hope for. Last year my word didn't come easily to me. This year, it seemed to bark at me from every angle, making it impossible to ignore.
Grow: to be capable of developing. To come into existence. To raise. To expand and increase. To reach maturity. To become larger. To become better or improved.
I don't delve very deep into my issues here, but let me tell you: my life is far from perfect, and my attitude towards life and how I feel about myself are far from perfect as well. This is why 'grow' has such a deep-rooted meaning for me.
I intend to grow. Grow as a mother. Grow as a wife. Grow as a woman. Grow in my relationships, my friendships. Grow with purpose and intention. Grow stronger, wiser, higher. Grow professionally and creatively.

I'm excited to see how my one little word will manifest itself in 2015, and I hope that you will all follow along on my journey to find out.
