I can't say I'm all that sad to see 2013 get left behind. It was a rough year during which I feel like I spend a lot of time in a fog. But for now I can feel weight of Usher Syndrome lifting a little bit and I am ready to move out of crisis mode. I hope 2014 will be a year of less yelling and more sleep, more drinking of water and less anxiety, and more patience and less hospital time. Praying for all of you and your families for many joys and blessings in the New Year!
Also...maybe I'll figure out how to have less-ghetto pictures on here. Maybe not though. Thanks Dwija for hosting!
Is that a shark carving on the pumpkin? If so, that is truly awesome.
ReplyDeleteLove all your pictures-praying 2014 will be a happy, peaceful, far less stressful year for you and your family!
It is! A bull shark, to be exact ;) Dom is a little bit obsessed with sharks
DeletePrayers for a peaceful new year.
