Sad to See It Go

It is common during this season to plan ahead, make resolutions and be filled with excitement for things yet to come. But the past 30 days have been so amazing, I wanted to stop and reflect with a dignified sympathy on seeing us pass from one month to another. The last 30 days have blessed Le and more than any other month in our history together. We've gotten our referral, fallen in love with another Ethiopian child we hope to some day call our own, 433 children from Ngariam currently have sponsors, and we've seen our first white Christmas together as a couple (which is a big deal in Oklahoma because it only happens 3% of the time!) Le and I have been blessed with new friends, continued support from our family and grown deeper in our relationship together and with our Savior. So as we anticipate with great joy all that 2010 will entail, a sweet adieu is owed to December 2009, you have been so amazing to us, I am somewhat sad to see you leave.
