Goodbye 2008, Hello 2009

What can I say about 2008.

I would have to say its been one of the most tumultuous years I have experienced since coming to this great country over 12 years ago. I am constantly having mixed feelings of fear and hope.

It was easier when I was young and carefree. Hard times just did not seem that hard. We always had the option of uprooting ourselves and move. Unfortunately that option was closed to us about 4 years ago when we first had our twins.

We had decided that the kids had to have consistency in their lives. We would have to rough it out and ride the waves. This is hard for me but I guess this is what we will have to do as the outlook dims...

On the lighter note, I am humbled and glad to say that I have made new friends. We spent our time eating and drinking our days and nights away. Thank you for including me in all the fun. (Hands together and bows...) Without you, I would probably be knitting in a corner.
I survived Summer with my kids. The endless cutting, gluing, sticking, coloring. If you saw my house, it would indeed be an place of craft.

My son started school and now eagerly awaits for his turn to be dropped off at his classroom. He knows his routine and has adjusted to life at school much quicker than my girls. I am very pleased with his progress at school.


That which does not kill me makes me stronger.

We will face more challenges in the new year, its outcome unknown.
But with the love of my family and friends, I pray to make it through 2009.

Thus, I end this year wishing everyone
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

See you next year~
