Happy New Year!

|


After a nice long break spent with family and friends celebrating Christmas and New Year's, I am slowly starting to get back in the swing of things. Honestly, I'm struggling a bit. It has been so nice getting some extended relaxation time, family time, and time to get a few things done around the house that have been waiting for quite some time to get done.

However, the time is here and Monday morning will dawn bright and early with return to work and school for all of us in my household. In many ways I am excited about what this year holds for all of us -- for all that God has waiting for us. In a select few areas, I'm a bit hesitant as I know there are new challenges ahead... some foreseen and some not. I also know, though, that whatever God has out there for us, it will be good. Regardless of whether they are easy to live out or difficult to live out, it will all be for good.

I pray we all experience a blessed 2010. Whatever it holds for us may it be lived well and with the Lord in the "top spot" of our lives.

Hi, Melanie, happy new year!

I'm so happy to have you back; I've missed you. Glad you had the chance to unwind and focus on "real life" a bit though.

Looking forward to growing in Christ with you through 2010.

Love you girl!
