A brand new year is in front of us.
Honestly, I'm not completely sure where the last 365 days have gone, but I am not so sad to put 2012 behind us.
It has been a challenging year... definitely a roller coaster full of ups and downs. I was cautiously optimistic that 2012 would be the year that the boy and I would actually get to live under one roof again, but of course the Marine Corps had other plans for us.
I've been reminded that I need to be patient, always be Semper Gumby, and that everything happens for a reason.
I've learned that things will happen when they are meant to, not when I want them to, and that good things happen to those that wait and persevere.
Things will never be perfect- but then again, I am not striving for perfection.
2012 taught me some valuable lessons- and I am sure that 2013 will teach me even more.
2013 will bring us a promotion (Hello SSgt Williamson!), a deployment, new experiences with new family members (I'm an auntie now!), a happy homecoming, and lots of new adventures to fill the days while the boy is floating around the world.
I am looking forward to seeing what the year brings!
Happy 2013!
