I think that instead of making a New Years resolution that I already know I won't keep (kind of like finishing this post-in-progress), I will instead reflect on the blessings that God poured out on us in the past year.
1. Grace continues to grow and be healthy, of which I can think of no greater blessing.
2. Erik has continued to be blessed by a good job in a good company with good co-workers.
3. I have been blessed to be able to stay home with Grace to teach, train, and enjoy being her mother.
4. We have a nice roof over our heads, food on the table (usually good, although there are the blunders every now and then) and live in safety and comfort, which is more than can be said for most of the world.
5. We are surrounded by friends who love us enough to laugh with us and yet help us grow.
6. Our parents are healthy, and one set can even be called without a country code being needed!
7. And selfishly, because I was nursing, I could eat more than normal and still loose baby weight. Not a very couth blessing, but it was good for me! :) If only a diet was always this easy.
