My 2013 Rollercoaster of a Year in Review

Another year is ending. Another year beginning with so many changes coming with it. Looking back & ahead:
2013
At the beginning of the year, we were still settling in to our new town. I still was wanting to conceive a second child, which seemed impossible. I was sad at every start of my period. My husband, of course, was telling me to put it in God's hands.
As the year progressed, I came to terms with not getting pregnant & decided to focus on getting healthy. I lost at least 10 pounds (I rarely step on scales). I begin to consistently pray for God's will in my life rather than praying for what I wanted. I signed my little girl up for public kindergarten, something I never imagined doing. (She loves it)
And then I decided I wanted a change. I went back to school for accounting - something else I never imagined doing, and I begin to think about getting my tubes tied... God had different plans!
Finding out I was pregnant came with a mix of emotions because I felt I had just accepted after all these years & moved on. It only took a few days before I was in a better state of mind. I had prayed for God's will, & this is i Everything is on His time & not mine & I have to accept that! So I started my new classes with extreme morning sickness & fatigue, but I made it thru my semester & signed up for more.
I don't know how long this new degree will take now that I am once again going to be in college with a baby, but it will be worth it to finally get a career I want.
2014
The year starts off with my ultrasound on the 9th. Can't wait for that! I will start my second semester of accounting that week as well & MaKenzie goes back to school. So that will be a busy week.
I have so much preparation for the baby to do. I don't want to procrastinate. I always do that, but I feel like if I do that then my schooling will suffer. So, I will have my crib set up & all the supplies bought with plenty of time to spare--I hope.
Welcoming a new baby in time for MaKenzie's summer vacation will give her plenty of time to bond with the baby. It will also mean no lugging a new born for pick up & drop offs. For that, I am grateful!
I really don't know what to expect of this year. Life with 2 kids and not living near family intimidates me a bit, I can't lie. All I can do is continue to pray for God's will & ask Him to guide me on this journey.
So.
Happy New Year & God bless. May this year bring you all you many more happy memories.
