I haven't really written about God-sized dreams in awhile, life gets in the way.
I know many people think the new year can bring a new start, but for me it is always fall. It's such a great time of year. Our life is always so crazy in the fall but while you get back into the routine after summer there are so many opportunities for change. To do something different. Whether big or small, it doesn't really matter.
Fall is such a new beginning, a time to really breath in that fresh air. Not just taking a deep breath, but taking a breath so deep you can feel it all the way deep down. It's like a soul quenching breath. That's what I have been doing lately. Taking time from the crazy to take that deep breath that brings on deep focus.
I don't really know what my "plan" is or where my journey is leading me. The great thing is that I don't have to know! I just have to know there is a plan that is more often than not out of my control and the funny thing about that is I am a self-confessed control freak. However, since I started looking outside of myself rather than within for answer I have been led. Led to look at the small things in life, led to met each day with the best I have to offer, led to know that there is no perfect in life just the wonderful masterpiece you make of it.
My kids need to see this, to know that they are enough, that they are wonderfully and individually made. This is my God-sized dream and that should be enough.

Start Children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. -Proverbs 22:6
So as my dreams started with wanting to write more and express more of me, it has turned away from me and more about these 4 wonderful gifts I have been given and how I can be better for them and through them. Raising them in a way they will not turn from.
