I don't particularly like the number nine and am quite happy to see this year end and have the new crisp number ten emerge as the New Year! It hasn't been a bad year, by any means. It's actually been full of so much goodness.
2009 recapped (I'm terrible at "recapping" but here goes...)
*both kids at home = happy mama
*a house guest = friend for me to help long winter months along
*trip to Calgary = the bean turned 18!
*found free doggies in the paper!! A double portion from Jesus.
*a graduate, houseguests, summer fun
*a budding romance between the son and the houseguest!
*two fun weddings in two weeks, the son in both of them, (but not as the groom!)
*outings to the lake with the doggies and oma & others, so much fun
*oma slowly gets healthier and stronger, very slowly
*new life for my sister, she is alive and getting healthier,
*she's even doing art by the end of the year! her house is redone, painted and tiled
*the bean is painting = hard work in the summer sun
*big fires on the Westside
*an amazing trip to Ottawa to witness God's blessing on our nation
*fun at Parliament etc. with dear friend
*little Luca arrives to bring delight to all
*dear niece here to learn midwifery
*back to college in the fall for TESL
*so much stress but fun with new classmates
*back to HCS to teach reading - more comfortable with this
*love the kids
*difficult to be teaching SS again - stepped in again too soon = lots of stress
*doggie overdoses - she lives!
*papa turns 84 = fun family times with 4 generations together
*sweet Christmas season
*reconciliation at church, it's a beginning
So I look forward. To 2010.
Praying for lots of grace. Asking for wisdom.
Lord I believe = help my unbelief.
Asking for love. The heart of Jesus to beat in my breast.
The eyes of Jesus to teach me to see
What's important to Him.
A heart overhaul, really is what I need.
Ask and you shall receive. (said by someone really reliable)
