I should be in bed. Aaron is sound asleep. I'm awake though.
Right now I regret the Diet Coke at 7pm with dinner, oops.
So in loo of sleeping, I'll ramble about the life-changes that have
happened and are going to happen before we hit 1-year married.
Past changes since getting married:
1. we got married (big change)
2. finished settling into a new home
3. left a job for a new, unknown one
4. joined staff with Campus Crusade for Christ
5. spent 6 months raising financial support with CCC
6. made the hard decision to leave staff
7. job-hunted (blah)
8. got a new job (praise God! I start Monday)
9. move again (6 days after starting new job)
10. this one is for Aaron: turn 30
Those big changes are all pretty much within the last
12 months (with a few upcoming in the next few weeks)
WOW! How can we have only been married 11 months today?!
It has gone so quickly yet so much has happened that I feel like
we must have been married 2-3 years. How time flys!
In the last year, I've learned much about life.
I appreciate being able to honestly say that I have trusted the Lord
for more in the last year than any other time in my life.
God has shown me much about His own character, about me,
about my relationship with Aaron and others. I've been
refined and broken for the sake of becoming more like Him.
That's great! But I do hope for an uneventful 2nd year of marriage, ha.
This pic was taken as we left the church for our reception 11 mo ago.
It's funny how foreshadowing it is for our first year (happy AND 'yikes')
My crazy life... in the center of the Lord's will. Amen.

You guys have had a crazy first year! Although I have to admit that some of these things you listed helped me to understand why I feel like I've been married for 5 years, when it's only been 1.5. Makes so much sense! Praying you have a fabulous first day on Monday!!
