I had every intention of sending out a nice photo card to all of you sweet friends, but for several reasons (not the least being that I couldn't find a favorite picture or an online photo card that I really liked), I have decided to write a Christmas letter to you via blog. I'm sure I'm not the first who has used this method.
Looking back on this year, I feel like I have to take a deep sigh, close my eyes, and take a deep breath. This year has been so FULL for us. FULL of emotion, FULL of ups and downs, FULL of extreme joy and deep sorrow. 2011 will certainly not be easily forgotten. If I thought I had anything at all under control, this year has certainly proved that I am nothing and can accomplish nothing without Christ.
Of course, welcoming Adrian into our family was the most amazing thing that has ever happened to us, ever. As you know, we are in LOVE with him, and with parenthood. Becoming a mom this year has been the absolute biggest blessing of my life and I know Nick feels the same way about being a dad. We are excited even more now about watching our family grow.
We are thankful for YOU and for the precious friends and family that God has placed in our lives. I hope this Christmas will be a wonderful one for you and your family.
Merry Christmas!
