A New Calling

I know I have taken a long hiatus. Motherhood, a full time job, keeping the house up,  and starting my own small business have really taken a lot of my time. But I just wanted to let everyone know my blog here for the next 365 days will for the most part be for a new purpose. I will by using it to track my new challenge to myself. I am hoping to become the next daily microphilanthropist. If you are wondering about my inspiration, you can find it here:

For the next year (and maybe longer), I will try to put a small amount of money to a cause, organization, or establishment that helps others. I hope to daily post the things I do, so if you wish to donate, too, you can! Please let me know! I would like to keep track and see and the end of this 365 days how much impact just one person (or a few) can make.
