How the time flies

There is a certain part of me that cannot believe that it is 2009. That just seems so weird. Kind of like it feels weird when I realize that I own a home, have a husband and 3 kids with one more on the way-life is just amazing the way that it turns out. I cannot say that I am happy that this year is over. We have truly been blessed with a great year full of faith, family and love. The only sad thing was losing Don, but in all honesty I have come to terms with it somehow. Don't get me wrong-it still hurts like hell a lot of the time, but I try to concentrate on what I have gained from it...just as he would want me to do-give him credit for teaching me or giving me something. I gained Dan, Collin, Don and Sheree and we have really developed a strong bond-all of us.
What else has been great-my family, my growing faith and walk with God, Alex and Aaron, Andy and Ashley and our first family vacation. I am so blessed. I have a great family-Mom and John, Dad, Krissy, Aya and Abu and friends that make my life better-Missy, Colleen, Elisa, Emily, Gallagher and Jillian. In short, I love my life and everything about it. I want for nothing and enjoy what I have.
