goodbye '09 hello 2010...

this time last year i wrote this.

now, here i am a year later reflecting
back over the year i was looking
ahead to. it's a weird feeling because
a lot more happened in 2009 then i
had planned on. in a good way!

in '09 we celebrated 5 years of marriage

in '09 i began my attempt at 365 days of grace
and made it to entry #164

in '09 we were surprised with another baby

in '09 we bought our first home

in '09 i crocheted A LOT

in '09 my sister might still make me an aunt
(she's due jan. 4th)

in '09 i chilled out (even more) about life
and now have more peace about
everything thanks to my Lord

in '09 i learned more about God's grace

---------------------

in 2010 i will learn even more about God's grace

in 2010 i will be an aunt!

in 2010 i will learn how to sew better and
challenge myself to make clothing

in 2010 i will get toned

in 2010 i will have so much fun with my kids

in 2010 we will buy a bigger vehicle
(eventually)

in 2010 we will be married for 6 years

in 2010 we will have a 5 yr old, 3 yr old,
and a 1 yr old.

in 2010 we will be praying about the next
step in adding to our family for the year 2011
(to adopt or not)

in 2010 we will enjoy our new house and continue
making it our own

in 2010 i will cook more

in 2010 i will reach out more

in 2010 i will write more

in 2010 i want to speak
(this is scary to write)

in 2010 i want to have energy
(i spent most of '09 w/o because of pregnancy
and then a new baby)

in 2010 i want to grow even closer to God,
my husband, my kids, my family, and my friends...

here's to 2010!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
