I need a "thing".

People who have good blogs, ones that are worth checking every day to see what's up, have a "thing". They might list things they're thankful for each day, or a favourite Bible verse, a trivia question or fact, so I need a thing, too.

I was lying in bed last night thinking about what's important to me in my life and how that could become my "thing". I realized that there is something important to me - I like to learn things. Could be some book learning or some life learning, but every day I try and put in to words what I learned that day. So, that's my thing. Every day I will turn my thoughts to words and blog about a lesson that stood out to me during the day.

I ask the kids each day "what did you learn today?" and "nothing" is not an acceptable answer in our house. As they have gotten used to the question, their answers have really improved!
Just like the kids, sometimes the lessons I learn are really good, quality stuff and other times it's as simple as 'pizza pops stay hot for a REALLY, REALLY long time'.

Stay tuned...
