I know we just met, and so far I have good impression of you. I just wanted to let you know that you sorta intimidate me.
You see 2011 and I got along pretty well. We had some ups and downs but it was mostly wonderful. There were some hard times, don't get me wrong, family and friends had medical problems, we lost two wonderful grandfathers, there were some hard personal stuggles, but in the end, the good out shined the hard.
We had a lot fun travels this year to various beaches, New York, Disney World, Utah and Yellowstone. We got to spend time with a lot of family and friends this year. We saw one sister sealed in the temple, while another friend got married, we welcomed two nephews to our family, a friend got pregnant with twins after a battle with her body, another got into graduate school, while yet another opened her own business. We continued to be happy and healthy, and for that we were grateful.
The thing is 2012, I know you are a year of change for our little family. Not a little change, but a HUGE change. My husband, Christian, whom you met yesterday, is graduating with his PhD this year from Brandeis University. This is something he has been working towards for MANY years. This is the year that he goes onto the job market, which is a great thing, yet a VERY scary thing. If he gets a job it means we most likely will be moving away from a place and from people that I am VERY attached to and love. If he doesn't get a job it means heartache and plan B's. Either way, it is gonna be rough, but we know it can be good. So I just wanted to ask you to go easy on us. I know you have great possibilities in our future and we are excited about them, but please bring us hope instead of doubt!
We look forward to our continued relationship. We promise to work on our goals related to our health, wealth and wisdom. My main hope is that this intimidation can slowly widdle away into a truly wonderful friendship. I'm sure we can get along wonderfully!
Warmest Wishes,
Laci
