Saying goodbye to a very trying but wonderful 2009! It was such a crazy year for our family in so many ways but looking back I cant help but see the blessings and Lord's hand in our lives. How grateful I feel for the countless opportunities I have had for growth this past year. I feel very fortunate to have the family and friends that I do and to have the gospel in my life. Everyday is a new day because of the gift of the Atonement and I want to remember this each day in the new year. We live in such a crazy world and I often think about what is to come of it when my children are my age. On the other hand I think what a special time it is to be living. To see the gospel spreading and the temples being built by the handfuls. How blessed we should feel to be a part of this time on earth.
I look forward to the New Year. I know that challenges will come but I have seen how much I have grown from the challenges we faced last year and I hope I can take them in stride and with grace:) Maybe. That is a good thought.
I dont like making New Year's resolutions only because I feel that they are made just to be broken. But this year I think I might make a few of my own.
1.) I want to get our food storage where it needs to be. I had the excuse in our old house that "I didnt have the room" Well, now I cant use that excuse anymore so I am going to work in it.
2.) Read more books!
3.) Take more time for myself. This might be the one I break because I do have 3.5 kids and time for myself almost doesnt exist!
I hope all of you have a Happy, Healthy New Year. I wish that you may all find happiness in the simple everyda experiences that life has to offer:)
