There are many things to reflect on from 2011. Many things that made me smile and many many things that made me cry. It was a very tough year, tougher than many know but because of my wonderful family and because of Christ love, I have made it through and feel that I am in a better place to start 2012.
My wonderful partner in this life who makes every day so much better. He holds my hand, kisses my check and loves me when I act stupid.
My beautiful but crazy daughters. My how they have grown! 14 and 11 and the most wonderful people to be around. They are warm and friendly and sensitive and loving. Yet they are smart butts with make me laugh smart mouths. They make me laugh, they make me cry and they bring more joy then I knew could exist. So many people talk about teens being difficult and hard to live with. I am enjoying every day with them and can't image what these other people are talking about.
Yes, occasionally one will grow a tail but it usually doesn't last long and it usually actually makes me laugh. They are the best gift I have ever received and I am so very proud to be called their mother.
I am thankful for the blessing of my family.
