It's hard to believe that today is the beginning of a new year and a whole new decade!
2009 was an incredible year for both Chris and I. A year that completely changed our lives forever!! I am so grateful for the challenges and blessings that this past year has brought us.
For me, the year brought a tremendous amount of change as I adjusted to life so far away from everything I've ever known. I started a new job in a field that I knew nothing about and learned to adapt to a long commute on a bus to get to work everyday...something I said I would NEVER do. I learned just how strong I really am and exactly what is important in life. I have loved more than I could've ever imagined and been loved more than I could have ever dreamed of. I have discovered how great it feels to truly forgive but recognize the impossibility of forgetting. I have experienced the incredible gift of being able to carry a healthy baby and share this amazing journey with the love of my life.....a man that loves me just as I am and loves our baby more than words can explain.
I can honestly say that 2009 has been the best year of my life! I would have never predicted it to turn out this way but I am so thankful it did :) I look forward to all that is to come in 2010!
Cheers to a New Year!
