What a Year

Can you believe that 2011 is coming to a close? And Oh, what a year it's been! The most memorable moment by far has been the birth of our baby in February. Life is more full and enjoyable because of him.

This blog has been a fun outlet for me - more than I ever expected. And a BIG part of it is because of readers like YOU. Thanks so much for sharing in our joy, looking at the endless numbers of photos that I post, and reading the silly stories of Maximus & Kooky.

Wishing all of you a year of peace, love, health & happiness in 2012.
So we're not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There's far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can't see now will last forever.

Happy day!

This is such a sweet picture, Heidi! And before you know it, Maximus will be looking at your posts as a young man...NO!!! The years are going by so quickly, but we can still bask in the joys of babyhood!

THANK YOU DEAR FRIEND for coming to visit. Let's make this a year to go out on a limb and just give all of our ideas a try!

BLESSINGS TO YOU! Anita
