So much has happened in 2008 - think more within a year's time in my life than ever has happened before:
I lost six relatives in six months: my parents, my uncle, and great aunt & great uncle who were married and another great aunt.
I broke both of my arms on my 5th wedding anniversary (six days before my birthday) and then I renewed my wedding vows the very next day after my uncle died on my birthday.
My biological father had two life threatening surgeries and has a very slow recovery going on daily lately.
My husband had a very close call to death and thank goodness pulled thru after going thru an anaphlatic shock a week or so before we moved into our house.
My husband and I adopted a 3 month old puppy and named him "Prescott" 17 days after my father died in March.
Also, I met a few celebrities this year, including America's Got Talent's past winner, Terry Fator, Dallas Cowboys' owner, Jerry Jones, & some of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition's crew.
Thru every moment of every event, God was with me every step of the way! Praise HIM always!
As I was reflecting up all the events that occurred in my life so far in 2008 and what I look forward to in 2009, I thought it would be neat to ask all of you the same?
So what happened in this year of your life of 2008 and what do you look forward to in 2009?
Wishing you all a wonderful new year soon ahead!
Love & Peace,
'Chelle
P.S. My family made up and cheer and told me it was for me, "2008 may have not been as great, but 2009 is going to be fine!"
