Grateful for the time off...

...but afraid jumping into the new year will be hard.

I love these lazy days.  Sleeping in a little.  Having Kev home (just wishing he wasn't still recovering).  I like getting small things checked off the list like getting my eye appt in on the last calendar day of the year (phew!) but don't love the snow and ice and driving in it at rush hour and going to the store in what seemed like a bisier day than Christmas Eve.  Don't love the to do list that is scarily building for the January.  Not my fav way to start a new year. But somehow lately I am learning to let go.  Not stressing about the little things, enjoying watching the kids play games and plan a talent show (1st annual Steg talent show tomorrow...Shelb has been working all day in it.  Banner is akready made!).  Just trying to find peace in these quiet times bc I think God created them  for that reason. Really praying 2018 can be a new kind of year. ❤️

So happy for you Kel; for the slowing down and the part about letting things go a bit...I am praying too, for a quieter New Year for the Stegs...BUT I am very bummed about missing the FIRST ANNUAL Steg talent show!! I bet the kids are loving it and having the time to plan one which is RIGHT up their alley!! Let me know how it goes!! Love, Nina
