This year has been difficult so we (I) am working at remembering all that there is to be thankful for and all of the many blessings we have received this year. Sometimes when you walk through dark valleys you need to remember that you have a vast beautiful sky above to enjoy. We have faced several trials this year that have really caused me to stop and think about who I am and the example I want to set for those around me I need to remember that sometimes it's not those standing in front of you that are looking the closest it's those that are 3 rows back that may be looking closest at you. I am very thankful for the many thoughts and prayers that have blessed our family. This has been a time for me to realize that sometimes life is not what we have planned and we have to be willing to bend. I have decided to sing in the choir for Christmas.This is way out of my comfort zone but I am enjoying being with my girls and we won't tell the director that Karen and I are goofing around more than we are singing. There is something to be said about the opportunity to sing with someone you grew up with. This year I'm more tired than I have been in a long time, I am more frustrated than I want to be with my life situation BUT I know that I am the one who controls my happiness and I will continue to look to the little things in life to keep me smiling. Sometimes those little things are what keep our faith in mankind. Thank you everyone for all of the many ways you bless my life!
