goodbye 2008


As I woke up this morning to a new year I couldn't help but reflect on 2008 a bit. It was a good year for our family. I wasn't necessarily ready to bid it adieu but at the same time I am looking forward to see what God has in store for 2009.

Here are a just few of the things that I will remember about 2008:

~we sold our house
~we moved into a brand new house that is a perfect fit for our family
~Darren had his gallbladder removed and it was uneventful (yay!)
~unlike last year, Darren didn't get shot at while on duty (now that is a good year indeed)
~Darren worked day shift which I never would've dreamed he'd do (I'm loving it.)
~Coby started Kindergarten
~Connor went to third grade and loves going to school
~Cale continued to plug along happily
~Most importantly, 2008 was a year that God was hard at work in me. I won't go into detail, but he has shown me things that I never did see before and I will never be the same. He gave me perspective. I needed that. I truly appreciate my life this year in ways that I never have until now. I am a lucky, lucky girl!
Hello 2009!
