The year 2015 was a big year for me...it saw relationships come and relationships go, there were deaths of loved ones, and life decisions made. Other than that my life was pretty dull!
I worked hard and kept house for my husband. I made monthly trips to the salon. Had manis and pedis every month. Life was good. Wait, I'm forgetting something or someone...my son. There were no salon visits, no manis and pedis, instead there was a tiny human being lifted from my womb by the skilled hands of a doctor.
There were numerous infections and antibiotics prescribed. There were wound drainage and weekly to biweekly trips to the wound clinic.
There were tears of joy and tears of pain. Grief, so much grief. Unborn babies meeting their Maker leaving our hearts to break.
There was a hasty trip to Michigan to see a loved one one last time. There was gathering of her loved ones to bid her farewell and blessed assurance knowing we'd see her again.
There was a heartbreaking diagnosis and watching a loved one suffer immense pain. There was death on a holiday where we celebrate a birth. So fitting considering that he got his heavenly birth on Jesus' birthday.
There was also a decision made to move to our house in Michigan. My husband and I did not make this decision lightly instead, we trusted in God and everything fell into place in His time.
This will be my fourth move in two years and my husband's fifth. Thank God we won't be moving anywhere for a very long time after this move. Moving is too stressful.
I'm excited to see what all 2016 has in store for me. I'm looking forward to less stress in our lives as we leave all the family drama behind and say goodbye to stuck up family members who were too good to associate with us.
Goodbye, drama, goodbye.
