It Was a Good Year

2010 was a good year. Well, anything that followed 2009 had to be good, right?

Instead of dealing with major health issues, this past year centered around the normal events of day to day life with our 4 under 4. The normalcy was a tremendous blessing.

It was a year of firsts. We took our first family vacation. The triplets started preschool and Sunday school. Cara started dance class. And for the first time we went 6 months between Brady's oncology appointments.

I have many wishes and prayers for 2011. I pray that God will continue to bless our family with good health and safety as we navigate through the next year. I pray that God will continue to use Brady's story to bring others closer to Him. On a more personal level, I'm praying that my heart will be filled with more joy than fear and that I will do my best to savor these precious years.

Here is a look back at our year, with one picture for each month of 2010. Happy New Year to you all. May it be filled with hope for each one of you.

January 2010 Look at these babies! And is that a diaper Eli is wearing? Make that our biggest accomplishment of 2010...potty training triplets.
