As we say goodbye to 2011 I wish it well.

How do I describe the last 12 months, simply I think 2011 has been a year of DISCOVERIES…

We have discovered a young man that has fitted into our family perfectly.

Have discovered our girls are growing up. Changing from beautiful young girls into beautiful young woman. Facing the challenges of life with such compassion that makes me so proud.

We have discovered that although our job is exhausting and at times emotionally draining we love it with all our heart.

Discovered that sometimes moving on is the only way to move forward. That someplace strange can soon feel like home.

That faith is a journey of ups and downs. It’s a roller coaster ride that you find is really scary but know you are perfectly safe with the safety belt of Jesus.

Marriage is an ever changing relationship, we discovered that even after 16 years we still need time to learn and cherish each other.

Though the biggest thing of 2011 for me is simply this FRIENDSHIP.

I have learned that some friends are not who they have led you to believe them to be and some friends are so much more.

This year God has blessed me with some incredible people I now have the honour to call my friends.

So thank you 2011 you have left me exhausted and exhilarated at the same time. Together we have faced fears, climbed emotional mountains and built a stronghold of spirit.

I have grown so much this year, learning more about myself than I ever imagined.

So yes 2011 you have been a year of DISCOVERIES especially for me on my journey of self discovery.

Thank you for the joy of my highs and for my survival through the lows.

And Thank you to you all for reading and being so supportive here at Walking with Angels.
