Things about 2012 I am thankful for...
1. My faith has grown stronger.
2. My marriage grew stronger than I ever thought possible.
3. E fought illness and defied odds, EVERYDAY, with her strength.
4. I reconnected with my best childhood friend who has grown into an AMAZING and beautiful wife, mother and woman. I'm thankful everyday for her friendship.
5. My MIL fought and beat breast cancer.
6. My mom had her 3 year checkup after her double mastectomy and is STILL cancer free.
Notice a pattern?
2012 was a year of strength for my family.
Some things that brought me down?
1. E dealt with some scary health issues. A couple that left us wondering if she would be coming home from the hospital with us.
2. We spent all of 2012 trying for baby #2, with no success. (and hit month 18 on January 1st)
3. My first laparoscopy in February didn't go as planned. I ended up inpatient, with blood transfusions and unable to care for my child alone, fully, for over a month due to lifting restrictions.
4. My MIL was diagnosed with breast cancer.
But the good outweighs the bad. Always.
2013 will be a year of hope. Hope for extending our family, hope for good health for our friends and family and hope for continued strength.
HAPPY 2013!
