It would be a serious understatement for me to say that I am thankful 2012 is over and we are looking forward to 2013. I have a real feeling that 2013 will be life-changing for our family in some pretty great ways!
Although I am thankful to close the chapter on the year of our lives called 2012, the Lord has taught us all so much and has been more real than ever, so for those things, I am extremely grateful. We have seen how much we treasure family relationships and real, genuine friends. The Lord has tightened our circle quite a bit and that is a good thing. All of us have closed the chapter on some relationships and have come to accept that is part of life. For new things to burst forth, some old things wither and die away.....and that is okay.
After the winter, the spring is coming. Not only does that happen in the physical realm, we have seen that reflected in life itself. Life continues to roll on as the seasons continue to change....whether in nature or in family life.
For those of you who have come alongside, we are truly grateful. For those of you who have laughed and cried with us, we are so humbled. For those of you who offered a kind word or timely encouragement through Scripture, it was then that we felt the love of Christ.
As we stand on the horizon that we will now call 2013, I am hopeful. My heart is full of joy. I have so much to be thankful for.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
