A New Beginning....

Well, this sure is a long time coming. I actually created this blog MONTHS ago, with the intention of using it as a sounding board and a safe place to go vent. The night I created I was so frustrated (with what, now I can't even remember). I tried to upload a video of Francesca Battistelli's song "This Is The Stuff" (hint, hint) and it was taking FOREVER!!! After about 30 minutes of this YouTube video attempting to load, I gave up....closed the lap top....and haven't came back here since. Today, being January 1st, I thought there was no time better than to start again. I've got lots of plans for myself this new year. I wanna lose 100lbs (wish me luck on that one), and really work on my relationship with the Lord. 2012 promises to be a very trying year for the Anderson's. My hubby leaves for a years deployment in May, and Hannah and I will face this world together. I know that there will be absolutely no way that we'll make it without the mercy and strength that only comes from the Lord!! So, if you're reading this and you are the least bit intrigued in the day to day life of an wife, mommy, daughter, sister, granddaughter, friend, and nurse who is trying to balance overtime, church, infertility treatments and a looming deployment, all while growing as a person and in the Lord, and dropping a few (read 100) pounds in the meantime, then stick around. I'm sure things are about to get interesting!!
