Thanksgiving – 2004

Will go down in my book as the Thanksgiving that I have most to be truly thankful for. To be specific:

* Ryan is doing so much better this year, compared to last year.
* Matt's home (now half my heart IS NOT in L.A.)
* I have an interesting job after a time earlier this year when I didn't know IF I'd be working after June, or where.
* My remodeled kitchen is BEAUTIFUL and I'm grateful for the home equity that paid for it – and for Steve's need for perfection that helped make the installation worth the time and effort (we did the majority of the installation ourselves – just the two of us).

On to Advent 2004

My sense is this will be a powerful Advent for us all. So much changing in each of our lives. My prayer for each of us (as well as all of YOU) is that hearts are open to whatever God may bring.
