At the beginning of a new year I love to reflect on the past year and also look ahead at the coming year. We have kind of started a little tradition of doing this each year for our family. We got married in '07 and started this in '08. We go on a new years date each year. I look forward to the girls being able to join us in this tradition one day. It has been so good for us and I think they could benefit from it too when they are old enough.
Each year we like to journal prayers, miracles, goals, etc for the upcoming year. So, then the next year (on our date), we are able to sit down and reflect on those we set a year earlier. It is amazing to see how God worked in our lives that year, what was good, what was really hard, what prayers were answered, and what things we might still be praying for in the year to come.
And the last couple years I have done a short recap of the year on the blog. Not so much of the things we are journaling and praying for, but just some highlights of activity in pictures. So, here is the first part of the year for our family.
