Come on 2008. Welcome. 2007 was not that great for us. Not awful but not the kind of year you look back on and say "that was a great year".
For starters, I miss Lori. Really miss her. She is not here as much as she or I would like her to be and when she is here there is a ton of stuff she needs to do. The holiday break reminded us what our life and relationship was like before teaching and taking on a master's degree in a year. We are good together. We have so much fun and I am happy. 6 more months and we will have "us" again. I cannot wait.
Kennedy really does not like school for the first year ever. It makes a huge difference in the day to day when your child likes school. We are thinking of changing schools and that has been somewhat stressful.
Of course the other crappy factor about 2007 is that we still do not have G and K home. UUGGGHHHH! I do not know what else to say about that. The majority of this year was spent in anticipation. Will they come? When will they come? What do we need to do next? Will we hear anything today? It wears me down and I am tired.
The good is that we are healthy and happy. I have the relationship and family I dreamed about my whole life. We are surrounded by incredible family and friends. We have a house that feels like home everytime I walk into it. We have kids that are screaming at each other as I post this. The good life.
2007 was not great but I never stop thinking about how fortunate I am. I welcome 2008 and the possibilities it brings. I think our kids may be home this year. Here is to hoping. I know for sure I love my life. Really love my life. Happy New Year!!

I've had years like this, but it seems like the next year always is an improvement because you are so thankful for the little things again. You are so close. When you get ancy, just think "stool samples". Jess
