Only a little over seven hours until 2009. Wow. As I get older time goes by so incredibly fast.

I mean, wasn’t it just yesterday I graduated from high school? Um. No. Try ten years!

And since then I’ve gone through four years of college, four years of teaching 4th grade, a year and half of marriage and almost a year and half of trying to conceive.

And now here I am almost in the year 2009.

I never imagined I’d be here this time last year. I wonder where I’ll be this time next year.

I have my hopes and dreams. Even more importantly that those, I have my faith in Jesus Christ.

And so I welcome the year 2009.

I put behind me 2008 and now press on to 2009.

I feel the beginning of a new year is symbolic to the new beginning of our fertility treatments post-endometriosis.

At this time, I am very anxiously awaiting my appointment with Dr. L to discuss our next step. I am just excited to see where God is going to take us next and, most importantly, what He plans to do both with my heart and my womb.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
