Are you ready to say goodbye to 2012 and hello to 2013? I know I am. Our family had a wonderful time celebrating Christmas. One of the things we did on Christmas day was to write down what we are thankful for and what we want to see happen next year.
I am running short on time this morning but I do plan on giving you a glimpse of what I wrote.

Organizing Home Life is doing a fantastic series this month offering a free home management printable every single day. Check out the printables she’s shared so far here.
Day 3: What is your mission statement? My mission has always been the same for Hearts & Home. Titus 2:3-5 KJV
Hearts & Home is here to encourage you to find a way to incorporate the things you love into your daily lives. I strive to share information, inspiration, and tutorials on topics like sewing, gardening, baking, and healthy living. Everything we do is about getting to the heart of home.
Why are you writing? What do you hope to communicate to the world? Who is your audience?
That is the assignment for day 2. Why do I write? I started my blog as a way to document what was going on around the house and with the kids so my family, mainly my grandparents, could keep up with us. As the kids got older my blog slowly transitioned into being more about me and what I was doing.
Most of the time I write to share and get the ideas that are roaming around in my head out. Not very poetic I know but I tend to be more like that lately.
