Happy New Year!

I know everyone says this, but I cannot believe it is now 2009. Where has the time gone? This year has been a great one, and we are grateful for that. I have been a little slow on posting, as has everyone else, these past few weeks. Life has been crazy at the Burt house.
We had something happen within our extended family that has really made me reflect on life and how fragile it is. Your life is in the hands of our Heavenly Father and it is He who decides when it is your time to go. Sometimes we take for granted those in our lives that we see often, or that we just know will be there tomorrow. We don't tell those around us how much we love and appreciate them enough. When that day comes that they are no longer around we look back and say, "If only I would have..." I want to make 2009 my year of no regrets. I want to be a better person, a better mother, a better wife, and a better friend to those around me. I don't want to have any regrets at the end of the year. I hope that we can all have a great year, here's to a great 2009!

Amen to that Siter! I usually never make any New Years Resolutions, but I think a Year of No Regrets is always something to strive for! Good post...
