In 2012, I plan to live life to the fullest and face whatever God has in store for me head on. I pray this year holds blessings and joy for our family and yours.
Bird and Yaya kicked the year off with a bang by making one of my lifelong dreams come true. Their Christmas gift to me was a chance to swim with the dolphins. I still can't believe I did it. It felt like I was floating in a dream.
I received another memorable gift from my parents. The stainless steel necklace below says,
"Morning Prayer"
"Now I wake me up to live. I'll give life all I have to give. If today I face a test, I'll cope and pray and do my best. With each breath and step I take, be with me Lord for Heaven's sake."
Needless to say, I cried like a baby when I read it. Like my day with the dolphins, this too was a perfect gift. I plan to say this prayer each morning and do just what it says. In 2012 I plan to live life to its fullest and I'll be thanking God each step along the way.
