End of 2011



The end of the year makes me a little sad, a little happy, a little cranky, a little excited...

I have always been that way.  I try not to be a person of regrets.  I usually try to be an optimist.  I really try to focus on today, and not the past or tomorrow.  I want to be someone who lives in the moment.

The end of the year just always brings to my mind everything from the year, good and bad. 

There were so many wonderful things about this year, 2011.
There were some heart-wrenching, bad moments too.

This post isn't about any of them. 

Today I am looking forward, but also living in the moment.  I have so very many things to be thankful for.  I am incredibly blessed. 

I am thankful for my husband, my love and best friend.
I am thankful for my children, my joy and pure delight.
I am thankful for extended family, support and guidance.
I am thankful for friends, fun and laughter.
I am thankful for a roof over my head and nutritious food to eat.
I am thankful for the opportunities that have presented themselves in our lives.
I am thankful for all my abilities.
I am thankful to God, creator and protector.

Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Love & Laughter,
Blessings for 2012,
abby
