I think as life is getting busier, I'm starting to feel more organised or at least starting to work out the things I want to do and set mini-plans in my head. I think it's probably come after a year of feeling a bit like I'm in a spin as I adjusted to life as a Mum of two. It's like as I'm getting more and more used to it, I'm becoming more aware of how important it is to set plans or goals and work on them far in advance if I ever really want to achieve them.

And it's not all fancy plans and goals - some are little things like being more organised for the boy's birthdays or making sure we have nice days out together in the summer. Because, as lovely as everything was last year, I did feel like I spent a lot of it feeling really last-minute, so this year I want to work on feeling somewhat more organised and prepared.

With this in mind I've deiced to write a list of just 10 things that I'm looking forward to in the year of 2017.
