There is this thing called time. Sometime’s it can be tough to see time pass us by. It throws lessons at you and there are some that are hard to take. Othertimes, it just simply brings emotions, both good and bad, into your day.
Time has been awfully kind to me in the past 365 days. I have some of the most amazing people that I call my
44 came in with furry. I wasn’t prepared for it. I was scared of it. I adjusted to it as the days came and went. Heck, I even got to like it so much that a month ago I thought I was actually turning 44…again.
The past 365 days have brought me some of the biggest blessings. There have been lazy days spent reading on the couch while dolly and her critters cuddle me so much my heart overflows. Days spent making one of Dolly’s pies, which usually means that we are heading to a meal somewhere with people who are very important to us. Days spent at the barn. Days spent in Viking. Day trips shopping. Annual events, like going to Spruce with my horse crazy kiddos. Holidays spent with family and friends. Days working on the farm, some of them bringing us new life and this year we saw two of our beloved pets say goodbye. Days helping the boys with their new home and their renovations. Trail rides. Movies. Starbucks.
I have achieved life goals this past year. I have won awards, gotten cover photos and seen the most beautiful people through my camera. I am halfway through my Fair Management schooling. I traveled to more new places than I did during the year 43. And I believe I have grown as a person.
As I spend my last day with 44 I feel love through all of it’s 356 days. So to all my family and friends, I thank you for filling each and everyone of those days with your friendship, laughter, words of wisdom, help when I was to stubborn to ask, support in only the way that is special to each of you but most of all your love. I love you all and I can’t wait to see what 45 brings our way!
