  1. My goal is to be a more well-rounded reader. I have the details of my resolution on my blog. I'm also doing Project 365. I'm also working on selling my adoption flag blankets (www.mamaenat.etsy.com) both online and at an ET Culture Camp I was invited to this fall.

  2. One blog I read about a family who adopted a sweet boy from Ethiopia wrote that she wanted to work on her photography. She did Project: 365, where she takes a picture every day of the year. She said that it has really improved her photography. Maybe that will help you pots 6 days AND get better at your photography. Blessings in the year and good luck on acheiving your goals!

  3. Those sound like great goals. My DR plans fell through 🙁 🙁 🙁 so I, too, am keeping my eyes open for 2010 mission trip opportunities. As of now, I am leaning towards India…

  4. Great goals! Mine are similar to yours and you can do that 1/2 marathon. I began from scratch 4 years ago and I'm hooked now. I'll keep encouraging you!!! Love your blog and love that we are starting our second adoption around the same time. Still trying to decide on agency. Oh and I'm in Tennessee…lots of adoption going on here! Happy New Year!

  5. LOVE your goals for 2010. Two struck my heart deeply…our hearts deepest desire is to bring another peanut home and I think He is leading us to Ethiopia.

    Your running goal…hehehe…WE HAVE TO TALK!!! I'm running my first 1/2 marathon in Feb. and I have been praying about starting a non-profit organization to help offer grants for adoptive families and ultimately humanitarian aid efforts (of course using running as a way to raise awareness). I would LOVE, LOVE to chat with you about what we are thinking.

  6. We have very similar plans for 2010!!!

    *I am leading a mission trip to Ethiopia and Uganda in late July early August~ Check out the blog I just started for it: http://www.africainjuly.blogspot.com
    It is through an organization called "Visiting Orphans"

    *I started a photography business to raise money for our Ethiopian Adoption~ I am self taught, with support from local photographers. I shoot everything on Aperture Priority, after years practicing!! =)

    *We are currently DTE (Dossier to Ethiopia) and waiting to bring home our Baby "Easton"

    *I am a 2nd grade teacher and I am working on my first children's book, that has to do with Adoption!!! =)

    Best of luck to you in accomplishing your goals!

    Smiles, Ashlie

  7. Best wishes on everything and a note about the half marathon training…like you, I did not consider myself a runner when I started training in 2007 for my half marathon. I quickly learned it was a very tangible way for me to work on being disciplined: eating right, working out, training regularly, etc. I am so proud that I ran the entire Lewis and Clark Half Marathon that September. It's one of my proudest accomplishments! God helped me every step of the way…and trust me, if I can do it, then anyone can!! 🙂

  8. my goal is ME. 🙂 We can talk about it over coffee in more details, but i have finally begun to listen to what the Lord has been saying to me for too many years.

    The journey began in the autumn, but it seems that a number of things are happening this month. I blogged about it today a bit if you want to read it, if not then let's have coffee when the kiddlets are back in school. (maybe next week!)

    AND as far as the 1/2 marathon goes, let me know what one you are running and I'm there with you sister. Unless you choose to run in Hawaii or someplace far away. 😉 And i'd love to train or at least do long runs together.
