One month down

Today marks the end of possessions month. It's not really over, though, for two reasons. 1) Due to bronchitis, a few migraines, and a pretty hectic January, we still have a few areas in the house to finish sorting. 2) I (we) want this to be more of a lifestyle/heart change than a one time "fix". If things go back to the way they were, this month has been for naught. As we move on to the next phase of our version of the 7 experiment, I pray we take this month's lessons with us. I don't want to collect more closets full of stuff I don't need (or even want). I don't want to teach my daughter by my choices to chase the American dream instead of Christ. I want my new motto to be "Just because I can have it doesn't mean I should."

In other news, food month begins tomorrow. I really enjoyed today. As in, crab cakes, cupcakes, pasta... Sigh. So long, cupcakes. Hello, spinach and sweet potatoes...
