2020 was the year of extreme highs and lows...it was the year that we added sweet baby Jack to our family, so it was certainly not all bad! He was definitely the highlight of the year for our family. I am just so overwhelmingly thankful that God gave him to us! The joy he has brought to our family this year in the midst of the covid pandemic has been immeasurable. Watching the way Mackenzie, Madison and Jonah love their baby brother has been so sweet. All 4 of our kids are amazing & we have made it through every victory and every challenge together. Madison's bike wreck and hospital stay was definitely the lowest, scariest point of 2020. Looking back, I am just so grateful for God's providence in that situation. It could have had a very different outcome, and I'm not quick to forget that.
Covid has changed our world in such a big way...from wearing masks everywhere you go, to not being able to see extended family and friends, to having to stay 6 feet away from people, to having important events and programs canceled, to learning how to do distance learning, to constantly worrying about yourself or someone you loving getting sick and dying from covid...it has brought a lot of extra anxiety and depression that has been hard to cope with this year. Going through pregnancy and having a newborn in the midst of covid was difficult, to say the least. I am so thankful that at the end of 2020, we are healthy and together! I am proud of us...We did it!
Now, GOODBYE, 2020!
(If only Covid would go away when the clock strikes midnight...)
Mark out the word "week" and replace it with "year" and that pretty much sums up 2020! LOL!
Hello, 2021!
