Hubby and I were discussing 2009 last night.
Blessings of '09:
both of us employed
health for our families and ourselves
meeting new friends
having a good priest in our parish
having the Sacraments available to us
the announcement that a new grandchild will be born in June 2010!
Trials of '09:
the mouse invasion!
my step-daughter marrying outside the Church
our other children not practicing the faith either
being physically distant from our children and our families of origin
Afghanistan
Most of the trials will continue into 2010 although I do believe the battle with the mice has been won! We have to start somewhere!
What were your greatest blessings and trials of the previous year?
