- Plan one date night per month with my sweetie
- Pray faithfully for my guy
- Give my kids my full attention when they are talking to me
- Be a more fun mom--play with them more!
- Say yes more often than no :)
- Plan a family fun night once a month
- Take time to help them enjoy the little things that make life beautiful
- Practice hospitality: have guests over for supper once a month
- Stay in better touch with friends and family via email or snail mail
- Get together with some of my fellow "mommy friends" for time to talk and encourage each other
- Write notes of encouragement or a phone call to someone God puts on my heart
- Keep up with my blog more faithfully (and thus with far-away loved ones at the same time :))
*What are your relational goals for this year?

So true - material things are fleeting & people last forever. I haven't really set any official goals for this year but I have to agree with several of yours. I definitely want to take more time for people & use our home more effectively as a ministry of hospitality.
Here are mine, also short and sweet:
1.To be more of a help to my husband; to make our home more of a refuge from the world for both of us; to nurture our relationship with little getaways and regular dates.
2.To stay in closer touch with my friends and family and to be a better friend and encourager.
I like your goal to have people in for supper at least once a month. Might have to adopt that one!
Thanks for spelling out your goals in categories like this. It has helped me in refining my own goals.
