Tuesday

      Here it Tuesday January 3rd, 2012. It is a happy day and a sad day for me.  My baby boy is now 22 years old.  Where did the time go and yet how wonderful to be here.  Can it be that my son really is 22 years old.  Am I really as old as I am?  I still feel like I just graduated from high school.  How can it be that my son is 22 and I will be married 24 years this year?  My son will be married a year next month. Wow.  God is good.  I am hopeful for this year.  I am looking forward to what God is going to do in my life and my family's life this year.
       I am praying that this is the year of healing and moving forward.  There is definitely more healing that needs to be done in my life and much healing in my husbands life.  He is really struggling now as well.  We are trying to wade through all of this best we can.  I pray that what I have learned is helpful for him and hopefully together we can reach a new level in our lives together this year.  I look back over the past year and see the hurt and anger and frustration but also I see the love of God that has been there all along.  I am so thankful for the healing that has happened so far and am praying that I keep my focus to continue.  I am looking forward with anticipation in this year.  I have no idea what this year holds.  It may still hold much hurt and anger but also much healing.  If I take each day as it comes and keep my focus, it will be a great year in spite of what it holds. God bless.
