It's December, 2008.

How did that happen?

11 months of this year are gone. Here are a few things that have happened that stick out in my memory.

A birthday with my dad (we have the same one.)
Becca almost died in utero.
Becca was born, tiny but strong.
5 months with Pete.

5 days in Guatemala.
Ariyana.
GretaJo.
Becca (another one).
Mary Margaret.
Hunter was born.
Eliana came home from Guatemala.
Becca came home for good.
We began a whole new education curriculum for children.
I finally figured out this job.
One online course through BTSR.
Several blogger friends became real live friends.
Countless books.
4 sermons.
Endless paperwork.
Tears, prayers, laughter, smiles, heartache, deep joy, precious time, stolen moments.

Just this one life.
