2013 A Year In Review: Lessons Learned.

What an amazing year it has been. I can't thank God enough  for the blessings he has given David and I.
Not only has he given Easton to us to be his parents, but he also gave us another chance with a little girl. I am beyond excited and nervous. Two kids under the age of two.

One thing God has taught me this year, Easton and Lynlee are his children. He is giving us the chance to raise them. That we are their parents, but at anytime we have to be prepared to give them back to him. With this Christmas season I did a lot of thinking of how I wanted to raise these babies. The more I feel that I am growing in my walk with God, the answer becomes clear. I want my kids to see their parents madly in love with God, so they too grow up madly in love with him.

Another thing I have learned this year from God, is timing is everything. And not my timing, his timing. With putting our house on the market earlier in the year and it being unsuccessful in selling, I feel that I jumped the gun. As David and I prepare to put it back on the market at the beginning of 2014, I think we are doing it right this time.

Lastly, it sort of coincides with the second. But his plan is so much better than mine. 2013 has proven that. I can only hope 2014 will be the same.

My prayers for 2014 is that

1. We give birth to a healthy, beautiful baby girl.
2. That David and I, individually and as a couple that we continue to grow in our relationship with God.
3. That our relationship with each other continues to grow as well.
4. Even with two babies I pray that I don't lose focus on God.

Everyone be safe tonight! Happy New Year!
