Here we are at the end of year.....the very last day. As I sit here thinking about it, I wonder where it went? I know I was conscious and involved in every day but yet, I ask myself, where did it all go? I was recently having a conversation with our six year old. He says to me, Why does dark time come so quick every day? My first response was to quickly tell him that it's purely for the sake of your parents sanity but really, it's because we are so busy at living life, that time flies by without us noticing....at least until I yell out, "It's bedtime" anyway. Then it's obvious that the day has now come to an end.
Here we are almost to 2008...but before we say good bye to 2007, I want to briefly reminisce about this past year.
Here it goes:
1. I became the proud owner of a cemetery plot.
2. Kara took her first steps.
3. My husband had a mysterious gall bladder issue and removal.
4. My husband's job was sent to India leaving him with a sense of "freedom" and me a sense of panic.
5. We lost a 13 year old cousin to a drunk driver.
6. We started a business.
7. Ryan lost his first tooth.
8. Ryan asked Jesus into his heart.
9. My Mom left our nest to explore other opportunities abroad....like bingo night and skip-bo with the gals.
10. Grace got her pink room.
11. We got a new dishwasher.
12. We became relative foster parents to two little girls.
13. Grandma Adelia passed away at the beautiful age of 93.
2007 also brought a year full of birthday celebrations and lots of living in between.
We pray that your 2008 is full of hope, full of happy memories created with those you love, and one full of God's peace.
Happy New Year!
