Christmas 2007

Christmas Day has come and gone once again and now everyone will be gearing up for New Year's. We spent a wonderful couple of days with family, we ate too much delicious food, we visited a lot and everyone seemed to have a good time. Ed will be working New Year's Eve but he should be home in plenty of time for us to see in the New Year together.

2007 was quite a year, as usual. There was our son, Edwin's ongoing sinus issue (see "Inside Ed's Head" June 22, 2007), the death of Ed's (my husband's) father, my brother's diagnosis of colon cancer. There were also good times. Our trip to South Dakota where we met with our other son, Robert, his wife and their two children, two marriages (nephews) and the announcement of two pregnancies in the family (nieces).

What will 2008 bring? We have no way of knowing. All that we do know for sure is that whatever it is, Jesus will be with us all of the way.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
