Good bye 2013

Our family has had quite a year in 2013. It was a year full of loss and grief. A year full of lessons and hope.  A  year of togetherness and memories.

Each year I make a list of goals for the new year, and here is the post of my list of goals I had for 2013.  I looked at them a few weeks ago to see how I was doing. :) 

I have worked on my continuing education credits and started on my next set of 150 hours. I am happy to say I did memorize Colossians 3 all the way through.  We started the book Love & Respect but did not get very far into it.  I think guarding my tongue against negativity is something I will have to keep working on because I do better sometimes but then slip up and feel negative again.  I got the school papers and pictures organized in a scrapbook for Caleb, and the newspaper clippings of my husband are organized in clear slip covers in a notebook. I have tried various things to encourage our son in his relationship with God and will continue this. 

I look forward to what God has in store for our family in 2014.  I will make a new list of goals for 2014.

Have a day of blessings!
