Holiday Highlights

My card tree

Happy 2nd Birthday Rylyn

Christmas Eve 
Sleigh ride

Becoming an Aunt and welcoming my niece Lucy on Boxing Day
December brought its usual bustle. Attending the live nativity mentioned in a previous post alongside opening up a couple gifts each evening (rather than the marathon on Christmas morning) helped keep our hearts and minds in the right place.

Bible Reflections:

"For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind." Isaiah 65:17

-The past two years have brought much change to our family. We survived 2 under 2 and a Celiac Disease diagnosis. I often pray that I would be able to cherish the present moments and that my mistakes may be redeemed. As I welcome this new year I also pray that whatever cannot be redeemed, may it fall from my mind that 2013 would be greeted in freedom.
