29 sleeps...

Yes till I fly into Regina with the boys and get to hopefully proudly watch D graduate. The boys are more excited about the TV's on the airplane and the waterslide at the hotel than the grad. Can you blame them? Sitting here with a glass of red, from a dear friend who brought a gift basket full of yummy treats, basking in the last leg of the journey. I have never had a year with so many question marks, and so much emotions, I feel like the calm is coming....well, at least for a little while. I know there will always be a new storm around the corner, but God is the same yesterday today and tomorrow and will be there always, so wonderful to know. I had a wonderful 5 days enjoying every moment that I could with d and the kids, and what a wonderful time for him to be here to celebrate the birth of Jesus. This time with him was special, and I have never learned so much about our relationship as I have over these last months, and it has been a really good time of reflection for me. I would like to share all those little moments we had together, watching the  boys, or seeing certain reactions of others, but I am going o keep these 5 days to myself and treasure it. God is good, more than good, HE is Awesome, and we both really feel cloaked in Blessings by his hand. So, cheers to the next 4 weeks....this is what I learned in 2010, how about you!
