2008

What a busy, incredible, emotional year this has already been. Several weeks ago good friends of ours lost their mother/mother-in-law. Right around that same time different good friends lost a very important person to them. Then we lost our mother/mother-in-law. All 3 passed away too young and to horrible illnesses. We are all still grieving and learning to live with the loss of our loved one.
This week has been a different, incredible, emotional week. This week we are crying tears of joy. Friends had twins on Monday. They are healthy, beautiful babies and mom and dad seem to be adjusting to a family of 6. Today another baby came into our lives. A beautiful 3 month old boy joined a family of 4 to make 5. We are still waiting for another friend to deliver her baby anyday.
What an incredible wave of emotions over the past few months/weeks. Waiting for life to end and watching new lives begin. 2008 has only just begun. What else will this year bring? Whatever happens with the remainder of this year I know I can face it. What an incredible family of friends I have. We share our sorrows and our joys. We experience it all together. Now thats incredible. Bring it on 2008.
