2012 went fast. That's really all I can say about this past year. My husband came home in February and now it's January 1 and yet it still feels like yesterday. Our daughter is almost 2 years old and has grown up so much this past year. Other than her milestones this year has just kind of rolled on by.
I blame it on the anticipation of our future. With my husband getting out of the military we knew that the beginning of 2013 was going to be a huge change. Now that it's January we have less than 2 months before we will be in Charlotte. I mean literally the first step in the rest of our lives is less than 2 months away.
Our 3 year anniversary is tomorrow. It feels like we missed a year and this should be our 4 year anniversary but I'm not quite sure why. Probably because the military has a way of making years seem twice as long. Although I am constantly stressed out lately due to this impending life change, I have to say that I am so happy that I have my husband and that we get to celebrate 3 years together. I know that so many women are not so lucky and would give anything to celebrate another year together. My husband is such an incredible man and I still thank God that he chose me.
I am sure that 2013 is going to fly by as well. Before I know it we will be in Charlotte, I'll have started my new career, Abigail will be 2 years old!, and life will start to calm down and steady out again.
Until my husband rejoins the military as a reservist. But that's a story for another day.
As of today I am promising myself that I will worry less and trust in God more. I spend too much time stressing over things that are happening regardless and less time just going with the flow. It's time to kiss the stress goodbye and focus on the positives.
Happy new year everyone. I hope 2013 is everything you need it to be.
