As the end of the year grows near, it is always a time for reflection for me. I love to look back on the year- the positives, the negatives, and all the in-betweens. I also love to choose one word that I hope will describe my next year- for me, going into 2020- it is SIMPLICITY.
I've done this in the years past, so take a look back on some of those posts:
