family mission statement

I got an email today from my favorite website, passionate homemaking. It was addressing mission statements. The first verse they used was Proverbs 29:18 "where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he." What was so amazing was the Lord woke me up at 4:45am and that is the verse He reminded me of. So, needless to say, when I came across this email, it made me smile. Has anyone worked on something like this? What is your experience? Please share any thoughts you have on the subject.
