A New Year...

After reading other blogs where they have reflected, I thought it might be a good idea for me to do the same was well....
Last year was way better than the year before. After having Athen I had mad post pardon... which took me till August to figure out, and till October to get it all worked out...
Last year I have made an AWESOME friend, my BFF Jill, aka Susan. I am going to miss her SOOO much when she leaves for school... who ever heard of such? Higher education and all...
Last year Athen got to meet his Nana. She was able to become not only a part of our lives but her own as well...
Last year Kevin started his own business........ get back with me after this year on that one ;)
Last year our little baby grew up to be a little boy... he has learned so much and brought everyone he meets so much joy...
Last year we went to Disney World for the first time... It was a start of a journey I have decided to take, one new thing a year... last year Disney, this year a CRUISE!
Last year I learned never to say never, and that life's choices have consequences.
Last year I learned that just because you think someone has hit their rock bottom doesn't mean that they feel the same and only till then will they do something about their own lives...
Last year I learned that just because people have the same blood running thru them doesn't make them "family"
Last year my mom turned 50, and I learned that I couldn't become the woman she is in her short 50 years in my whole life time...
Last year my sister turned 30, I learned that she is much stronger than I ever gave her credit for...
and last, last year I learned how to pray again and believe in that prayer....

Here's to the next year and learning so much more....
