Enjoy!
I have a tendency of taking on too much and doing more than I need to. Which leaves me feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and frazzled. I find myself rushing through my obligations or tasks so I can get on with the next. I rarely slow down and ENJOY what I'm doing. Although daily life will still take place around here, I can slow down a bit. It hit me hard when Halle turned 2 that our kids are growing up very fast. I can't make time slow down, therefore I need to enjoy this time I do have.
I was reading in 3 Nephi a while ago and was reminded of a great lesson. Christ was teaching and visiting with the Nephites. It is about time for him to go and administer to other tribes, but he stays to "tarry a little longer with them". If He had time to tarry and enjoy the moment, I think I can also.
May this year be ENJOYABLE for all of us.

Amen to every single thing you said. I too find myself rushing through life. Sam will start Kindergarten in 7 months (all day here) and I am freaking out that I will be kidless all day. I never thought the day would come and it makes me want to cherish all the time I have with my kids!
I think that would be the word that I would choose....if I was doing so! My whole positive theme is "enjoy the here and now!" All of my new years resolutions revolve around it! It just made me smile to read your post. I already see you as that kind, but we can always enjoy more!
What a beautiful post... I think I should adopt that same word! Isn't it great when the same scriptures teach us so many different things?! Thanks!
I agree! Enjoy every moment and remember to slow down...I have to remind myself to do the same every day. Happy 2010!!
i love this theme! thanks for the reminder!!
I love this idea. I especially love your comment about how Christ took the time to tarry longer. Time really does fly! Thanks for the reminder to enjoy it!
