| NYE 2017 |
I am so glad that you are finally here! I counted down to when you would make your appearance with such expectancy in my heart.
As I said good bye to my lovely friend, 2017, I realized that I had some pretty incredible memories. I made new friends, went to my first professional baseball game, had a first date, started a new job, finished DivorceCare, became a member at my church, found even more healing, had great conversations. I turned 30, Seth learned his letters, Jayden opened up talking so much, had two amazing birthday parties for them. I bought my first house and moved in. I had funny little rewards given to me by my work. It was a joyful year overall.
But you, oh you. I am so excited for you to be here.
I hope you bring more peace in my home. 2018, I am expecting great things for you. Laughter, friendships, adventures, and growth.
Now that you are here I want to embrace the beauty that you hold. The excitement in a new beginning. Saying good bye to yesterday and hello to all that is in store for me.
I look forward to birthday parties and get togethers with friends. I look forward to challenges and learning new ways to overcome them. I am looking forward to a deeper spiritual walk and for the Lord to reveal Himself to me more. I look forward to dates (wink wink) and getting dressed up. I am so looking forward to my sweet boy starting kindergarten (tear) and for a brand new daycare for them both. I look forward to new recipes, new restaurants, more coffee, and even some desserts.
Overall, 2018, I look forward to new grace that waits for me each and every day you are here!
So glad you are with us!
new years, new growth, new love, Monica
