The perfectionist in me has been stressed out by all of life that I didn't chronicle last year; the overwhelmed me realizes there is no way I will ever adequately "catch up"; the aspiring blogger in me does not want to abandon ship; and so I'm doing the only thing I can do. I'm letting bygones be bygones and moving forward.
I'll just say that 2008 was a year of many afflictions that culminated in the great blessing of receiving sweet little Faith. Would I do it again? Whole heartedly I say YES!!! But I am grateful, very grateful that I don't have to.
2009 has so far been a little kinder and yet... Heavenly Father has not seen fit to lift all of the heavy burdens. I am trying now to more fully"Come unto Christ" for I truly need His rest!
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Thanks Holly for posting this. What a sweet post. I sure love you guys.
Hi, Holly. I got to your blog from Karla's, I hope you don't mind me reading it.
I felt so empathetic after reading what you had to say. Raising a large family can be very hard at times but somehow, with the help of the Lord, we make it through. I'll pray for you and yours. I know God hears and answers prayers. Hold on, pray on, live on happily no matter what.
