Well blog readers I have made it! Yes me and my sweet lil one's have made it to another holiday, and guess what we are looking into a new year!
You see as many of you know at the beginning of this journey I was afraid, full of worry and doubt, and now look at were we are! Yes folks I have done what I set out to do! I have established my lil ones and I into a new home, and yes girls I upgraded! You see I decided that this go around it was going to be all what I wanted and what my little ones needed. Never again will I be in a situation were I have to live somewhere that I don't want too, nor will I live in a home that I have no control over what goes in the home.
My fairytale had to start with me finally realizing that I am in charge of my happy ending and when I discovered that I had this control things began to really start working out. My children really have reaped the benefits of this discovery, you see when they saw me for the loving, strong, intelligent, and caring mommy that they had only seen a shadow of in the past they were able to really start to feel secure in their new life.
And seeing them this Christmas has given me a feeling like I have never had before. You see this year we are starting new traditions that I have wanted to do for years! We are getting our family picture taken! Yes sad but true in the twelve years that I had been with the Frog Prince we never had a family photo! So this year my lil family and I got our pictures taken! To top it off, we are getting a REAL Christmas tree not a fake one, and for the first time ever we are able to choose what we want on it! We added the Christmas stroll, looking at lights, oh and an unlimited supply of Hot Cocoa! Now among all of the new traditions, we are keeping the old ones as well. The Santa key, the baking, making lists to Santa, and watching The Christmas Story. But this year we are all feeling a lot less stress, and so so much more blessed in our lives.
It truly makes one humble when they see all that God can bring into your life when you are willing to take the plunge and trust him.
