New Year

Christmas has come and gone. What a blessed holiday it was. There were lot's of family and friends and time to enjoy them all. There was the ever present traditions and the unexpected surprises, including my sister-in-law form Denver. It was a wonderful two weeks of celebration.

Abigail was off from school and we started a new New Years eve tradition. Abigail planned the menu for the evening and then helped me shop and prepare it. We invited my parents and my husband's parents over for the evening. Abigail made menus and served each guest at our New Year's Eve Resteraunt. She was too exhausted form all her work to stay up until midnight. As it was Mitch and I rang in the New Year an hour early with Mexico City and turned in.

As for what the new year will bring. Perhaps a recap of what 2009 blessed me with that I never would have guessed

• starting to sell chocolate with Dove.
• my sister adding a new nephew to the Nanny duties
• running three half-marathons and one full with no injuries.
• The Run For the Unborn planning is underway
• My husband and I traveled with out the children on company expense and even out of the country
• I feel busier than ever and yet I feel calmer
• We survived the "economy" with out loss, It pays to start of poor.
• I am blogging. Okay not as regularly as some, but I can get few posts a month.

I know that the winds of change are brewing. I feel that this year will bring even bigger change. I am praying about what that might be. I feel that the first thing I have to tackle is the Run for the Unborn. I feel called to that very specifically and I want to have the permit and insurance settled by the end of the month so I can start preregistering. For now I will leave you with this. What would you all do this year if you were not afraid? Why not do it?
