Congratulations to our lucky winners! #139, Swenbourne; #245, The Lovely One; and #168, Tiffany M.!
I first discovered the Word of the Year in 2007 by Michelle, Kristi, and Lisa and was immediately inspired by the idea originated by Alli Edwards:
A single word can be a powerful thing. It can be the ripple in the pond that changes everything. It can be sharp and biting or rich and soft and slow.
I thought long and hard about my word of the year and it came as a result of what I’ve been thinking about a ton this year, which is about being true to myself, and taking care of my aging skin {snicker}.
Be·YOU·tiful ~ Having beauty; having qualities that give great pleasure or satisfaction to see, hear, think about,etc.; delighting the senses or mind.
I just love the word, and the word play within the word, don’t you? I want to be sure that in 2013 I take care of ME as well as others, ‘cuz that’s important, too.

I choose the word TRUST for 2013. I want to trust more and worry less. More trust in God, family, country, and my fellow man. Trust that no matter what happens, I will survive and thrive. Faith, believe, hope, love are wonderful words. For me, trust is key. I have to trust in order to love, to believe, to have faith and to hope.
Thanks for the giveaway. It made me stop and consider.
My word of the year is GO.
Go – with focus
Go – with purpose
Go – with determination
Go – with character
My word is “Stretch”. I want to stretch myself in ways I never have before. I want to go farther with my relationship with God, family and friends. Sometimes it takes getting out of my comfort zone to do the things God is asking of me. I want to be obedient to Him and stretch myself.
Just did my tweet of this great giveaway. Thank you
My word for this year is Faith – Not only to increase my christian faith this year but also to have faith that things will improve for 2013 as 2012 was so rocky. Not to mention faith in love, faith in my parenting, and faith that my business and blog will grow.
