Well, it is New Year's Eve! Hard to believe 2010 is almost over. It has been a good year all in all. As I look back and reflect we have all grown so much. The kids have grown and matured and can do so many things they couldn't do last year.
Peanut is edging closer to graduation and closer to more adult responsibility. He is now gainfully employed and learning how to manage his time and money. I pray that he will have a positive 2011 and mature into the man we know is in there somewhere. I also pray that he would put God more prominent in his life and ask himself WWJD when he is faced with challenges and temptations.
Woobie is growing so much as well. He is reading and doing 2nd grade math or better. He is more independent and seems so much more settled. He is sleeping so much better and not having night terrors like he used to have so often. He is becoming quite a little gentleman. He is so sweet and loving with his younger brother and sister as well.
Schnooky Bear is doing well at recognizing his letters and simple words and even dabbling in some math problems as well. He is becoming more independent and loves to do what his big brothers do. He is such a quirky funny guy and always make me laugh.
Missy has matured so much and can take on any adult in a conversation. She knows all her colors and shapes and even recognizes some letters and numbers. She loves to sing and has an exceptional memory for songs. She is a tough cookie too. Kind of has to be to keep up with 3 older brothers. She gives them a run for their money and doesn't back down from a challenge.
The little boys are learning to be a part of a team as they completed their first season of tball this year as well. They do so love and support each other and their teammates.
I feel like Sean and I have grown as well. Our spiritual lives have really grown and our relationship with God and each other has really strengthened so much this last year. It has been so wonderful to grow closer to my God and my husband.
Sean, Peanut and I brought in the New Year with our dearest friends at the Wynsma's house. I so cherish our friends and our time together. We have all grown closer to God together this year with our couples Bible Study as well as our individual men and women's studies. Our teens have joined in on many of our meetings as well which is so important for them to help grow their faith as well.
We had a fun evening of reminiscing and eating way too much yummy food and then we watched the ball drop in Time Square and wished everyone a Happy New Year before heading home a little after midnight!!
The little ones stayed with Grandma and Grandpa and had a party as well, complete with party hats for all three of them.
New Year's Gift to you all!! Here's to a blessed and memorable 2011!!!
