All Things New

"All your mercies anew every morning. So let me wake before dawn. And when the music is through, or so it seems to be; let me sing a new song. Old things gone." -Nichole Nordeman's song "Mercies Anew"

This is one of my favorite lines from a song. I think it speaks so well to the ending of 2012 and beginning of 2013. I am eager to say goodbye to 2012. I'm eager to put so much of it's pain, betrayal, desertion, and heartache behind. 2009 brought me my amazing husband and 2011 brought us our beloved daughter. 2012 brought a reminder that God is in control no matter what. Regardless, I can't help but look forward to new possibilities in 2013, hopefully without the injustices that hurt so much this year.

I have no resolutions made, no huge goals that I expect to be successful as a new year rolls in. I will continue on Weight Watchers. I'm 25 lbs down since September and I will continue on this life long journey of being more healthy. I will continue my knee recovery and focus on the over all toning of my entire lower half. Mike and I will be pursuing our first home this year and possibly exploring adding to our family of 3. I will continue my reunion group with Jenn and serving on Tres Dias. I will continue to learn more about God's plan for my life and pursue Him in raising my daughter, serving my husband, and loving those around me.

There is only one goal I have for 2013: for it to be better than 2012.
