2012

Happy New Year 2012, on the eve of the last night of 2011 my reflections lead my to thanks...this past year or really the past 5 years have brought me to a life I am forever astounded to be living. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever believe it would get this good. The lord has truly blessed me & I will say as I always do~ I feel his smile upon me with each blessing he has bestowed my way...from my amazing friends who have seen me through the toughest lowest points of my life...some even "rescued" me - pushing & getting me out of some bad situations, to my amazing cousin (mi primo favorito) who in an act of guardian angelship - got me my first interview for my first real job which gave me the means to get out of said bad situation... *** this one seemingly small thing altered the course of my life forever...from that interview I got my first job out of college, met Denise who became a dear close friend who introduced me to my now husband with which we have 2 beautiful boys...*** hence the guardian angelship reference. I find it surreal to be able to pinpoint the turning point of my life to one event...as I sit here looking at the mini version of my husband while he calls to me "Momi sit der sit der"" my entire being is brimming with joy/pride/happiness/contentment - a general feeling of all is right in the world at this moment within these walls with MY family. Thank you Lord for all that you have given us in 2011 especially the most wonderful surprise of our little bundle of chubba wubba Christian who made it on the last day of Leo with 4 minutes to spare to Mommy's added delight. I'm so in love with him, my first born Benjamin, my amazing hubby Ben (even though gets on every last nerve I have) I love him more & more each day..every fight brings us closer cause after each one I accept the fact that I'm not ever leaving him as none of these bickering squabbles are actual deal breakers ! Too bad he's not reading this blog cause he'd have that little fact in writing... Hahaha anyway 2011 was amazing & if 2012 & every year after goes exactly the same I'd be one lucky woman.
2012's goal : get in shape to dominate my first Spartan Race in June ~ that right I said dominate , not just do ~ that means train hard & give it all I got , in it to win not just do!
