New Years Eve

At the end of the year we have a lot to be thankful for there have been some great times and some very sad times. Although it has be uncertain at times Ste still has a job but we start the year with the same uncertain as last around his job. Although Abigail didnt get into our first choice of school we are both now glad she didnt and very happy with the school she is. The logistics have worked out ok with getting her to school. Samuel although dosent like being dropped off has settled into nursery and next year it will be his turn to start school

It has been an up and down year for all of us health wise apart from Abigail who has completed her first term at school witout a day off. I had a major scare ending up in hospital with ketoacidosis and ste has been very up and down.

Abigail turned 5 and Samuel 3 and of course we celebrtaed grandmas70th. There was the arrival of my friends little girl Heather. Of course we all lost a very dear fiend with the passing of Auntie Rachel, a friend who will always be missed and never forgotten and who is an angel in heaven.

We dont know what the new year will bring but continue to pray that god has a good plan for our lives and at the continued saftey of ste job
