I look back on this last year and think of how happy it has made me to have Rest In Hope in my life. It seems like it has always been there. It has. Really!
New friends
New communities
New bonds
Enlightenment
Encouragement
Inspiration
Love

For the next year, 2012. There are many words and one most often used by me is HOPE.
Change
Ideas
Goals
Determination
Love
There are so many things I want to accomplish this next year with Rest In Hope and in my personal life. But they are intertwined and one can not exist without the other. Our family's main goal is to move back East. Texas is hot nice but we have family back there we haven't seen in almost 3 years now. Most importantly to me, my Daddy and my baby's grave are in VA. Some where close enough that we can have long weekend visits and spend time together again. Some where that we can call home and put down permanent roots. Especially for Matthew. He deserves that! A house to grow old in and have fellowship in. We have missed that.
Facebook and this blog allow us to be anywhere and still be close to you, what a blessing. Oh and blog makeover coming sometime soon courtesy of Fran from Small Bird Studios. Time to step up the blog a bit too. I'd like to share with y'all my artsy side. I'm sure you've seen the rosaries and prayer beads I make but that is just one part of my passion for creativity. The FB page does not feel like the right place to do that unless it is loss related and I think it may help someone on their journey so I'll be using the blog for sharing other sides of me to you.
