Here we are... Another year has come and gone and I sit here in disbelief that it happened so quickly. Many things that were major life events happened for my daughter and I in 2014 and I would like to take a minute or two and share my happiest moments of this year. In January of last year, my daughter and her father met for the first time. I watched a beautiful moment of him holding her and kissing her. He blessed her and I cried happy tears. In February I had fallen in love with Troy. It was the week before Valentines Day that I realized I couldnt go a day without thinking of him and I knew then that I wanted him in our lives. In March my daughter said her first word. Momma. Of course. Aaand I cried. In April, my daughter took her first steps and my heart dropped every time she fell trying to walk. It was the scariest but proudest moment. This month was also when I was hired as a Family Service Counselor. I loved my job and all that came with it. Helping so many on a daily basis was a blessing. In May, I got to experience my very first Mothers Day. What an overwhelming, beautiful holiday. đŸ’— In June, I also got to experience my very first Fathers Day too! Cause you know us single parents are both mom and dad, twice the stress, twice the tears, twice the work but its also twice the love, twice the smiles and twice the hugs and kisses. July I celebrated my 29th birthday. Last year in my 20s! (Eeek!) In August my baby girl turned the big ONE! We had a wonderful birthday party for her. I also moved in with my cousin Michael and he has been the best friend to me through everything. September- I got to attend Troys daughters birthday party and that meant the world to me. October was a rough month. I hit a hard patch in my life and things were not easy. The positive side of this is... In the darkest of my nights I was able to seek God and I developed a relationship with Him. I have much work ahead of myself but so far, my heart is on the right track and He is apart of not only my life but my daughters too. In November I started Growth Track classes at my church and became a member, finally. This is a huge accomplishment for myself and I cannot wait to see what He is going to do with my life and how He can use me. In December, I reached out and reconnected with my mother, whom I hadnt spoken to in a long time. I finally let go and forgave and I am at peace with the past and I hope we develop a relationship thats healthy. I spent Christmas with people I love and care for. Before I lost my job, I was able to sponsor four children for Christmas and give back to the community. Next year I hope to do more. As you can see, 2014 was good for me and my baby girl. This new year will be the best and we will make the best of it. January 25th I will be getting baptized. Ill be getting a new job and Ill be turning the big 3-0. So, here are my 2015 New Years resolutions. 1. Enjoy life! For 10 minutes in the early morning and for 10 minutes last thing at night, I will focus on the good things in my life. 2. Get out of debt! Throw all my extra money into paying off bills so I can focus on saving for my daughter to have a better future. 3. Memorize bible verses! Once a week I will memorize one bible verse. 4. End each day with a prayer! No matter how hard or lazy or bad or good that day may have been, I need to set time aside each evening and pray. 5. Lose weight! Of course, its everyones New Years resolution but I need to do this. The gym is my friend and we have a wonderful relationship. I want to get healthier and set better examples for Madeline. Now, I want to wish you all a very Happy New Years. Make sure you kiss someone you love at midnight. Be safe driving and if youre drinking and get stranded or need a ride DO NOT drink and drive you call me!
