Just had my babysitter cancel on me and I’m in a frenzy to make alternate plans. That kind of relates to my slice today. It’s funny how life can totally change in just a moment.
My word for the year is SAVOR. I haven’t “sliced” since last March, but I’m going to try to get back in the swing of it with a moment I have savored each week.
Even though I’ve been on break for the last several days, the kids at school are never too far from my thoughts. If this is your first day back too, have a great day!
This is a bit late, but I had to start off the new year slicing! Here’s my one little word for 2012! Happy new year’s everyone!
