Do you have a word of the year? Are you one of those people? I am, even though I don’t like to admit it. My word of the year is ‘intentional.’ I get so caught up in the daily grind, that I often forget to be present and to live intentionally. My children are only little for such a…

DIY Custom Wood Name Signs
