Accomplishments of '08 and Goals for '09

Wow, as I take a gander at the year that has passed I realize so much has happened! There have been so many changes in our family and in me personally I'm just blown away. These are the things I have accomplished:

• Lost 20 pounds
• Made four new friends
  
• Moved out of one house into another
• Raised the kids on my own for 13 weeks (with the help of my dear parents)
• Went another 8 weeks with Tyler home on just the weekends
  
• Moved out of another house into our condo
• Taught a one year old to sleep longer than 45 min.
• Made friends with a brand new baby named Peyton
• Visited Kim and Cory and discovered that Alabama isn't so bad
• Potty trained Cole (as of 12/31 he has officially done it! Hurray!)
  
• Grown closer to the Lord and my faith in Him has increased by leaps and bounds

I'd say that's a nice stack of accomplishments!

Here's what I would like to see come to pass in 2009:

• Lose 20 more pounds
• Own a car that doesn't require sacrificing food and warmth to pay for it
• Start Cole at Kids Corner
• Start Kayley in Kindergarten (aahhhhh!)
• Stop using the word "freaking" (if you can call it a word- it's more like a substitution for something foul)
• Tyler have a steady job and see his back and knee healed
• To have a stable life!!!

I know that these are just the beginning!!

Happy New Year!
