2009 recap

Hi there--I have not blogged in a loooong time. when its cold I am not the most productive of people. I am definitely a California girl! Anyway I am thinking of the year almost over and wanted to take a moment to revisit some important things that happened this year.

* started volunteering more at church which led to being asked to be on staff as director of womens ministry

**Rob and Sarah(my bro and his wife) got back together after over a year of separation. PRAISE GOD!--that one was of the hardest times in my life...God really guided me through those dark times and I was also blessed with amazing ladies to lean on in those times.

***Introduced to Beth Moore Esther study--GREAT STUFF...bust also met 2 amazing ladies through the process Pam Smith and Eileen Watson

****SUNRISE STUDY GROUP--this is my 6am study group with Lisa Andria and Jaymee(and in the beginning Ashley)

*on a sad note many divorces of good friends Salcedo's, Watkins, Watkins, Whit, Cunningham but 2 great friends married Kosta and Alex and Jenny and Mark

*****Jovan starts preschool

*******I lost 35lbs and dropped from a 10 to a 6.

A few topics that have been on my heart this year...vaccinations--I am a skeptic on the amount of vaccinations that we give our kids today...I have given this topic to God and feel at peace with the decisions that Dante and I have made on behalf of our children.

Another topic I have been seeking wisdom on is whether to start Jovan in kindergarten in 2010 or 2011. We have decided 2011.

this topics have penetrated my heart a lot this year and I have sought much wise council in the matters and am at peace with my decisions.

In 2010 I want to yell less at my kids...I want to be more organized and tithe better!


Thanks for listening...

Goodnight!

verse for today...

Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name 1 Chronicles 16:34
