2013 reflections

2013....what a year! It will be remembered as a year that was filled with challenges, but also much joy. Here's a look at some of the highlights:

What a big year for our family. I am grateful, and awed, about the way God works through struggles to touch and change us all. Our troubles are also our joys if we can hold them up and put them where they belong — in God’s hands.



Happy New Year!
