I am wondering where another year has gone. It seems the older I get, the faster times go. Or that I just don't remember things...I believe it is both...
I was reminiscing about the past year trying to sum it up to one thing. The thing that comes to mind is
BLESSING.Despite it being a tough year. Our family has handled it pretty well. The death of my mom. The near death of my dad, our adjustment with our new girls, and my brother being airlifted. In the end, the results of all that has happened, we have been able to see
God's blessings. A few other blessings that happened through the year.. We were reunited with my nephew after 15 years of not seeing him. A dental bill that was obsolete, meaning that our dentist told me he would cover whatever our insurance did not cover. What a blessing.
My dad making it through his accident. My brother getting the help that he needs. Being reunited with a childhood friend. Restoration in relationships..
I guess that is why you can see why I call this a year that has been full of
BLESSINGS.Vacation look... Doesn't he look scruffy????
Mike clean shaven and ready for work.. Maybe...He has such a baby face..
Today is also the end to Mike's vacation. He has to go back to work tomorrow. So he had to shave. I just love when he has a little facial hair. The time off has gone fast.
Well, I want to wish all of you a
HAPPY NEW YEAR and many
BLESSINGS of
HEALTH and
HAPPINESS in
2009.
