Last Day of 2008















*the consequence of Jess not having our baby when we said ... she won't do that again, now will she?
Happy New Year everyone. i, personally, am excited about 2009. i just feel good about it. i know in my heart of hearts that all of our hard work will pay off in 2009.

Recently, we went back to Virginia to visit family and meet my sister's baby - we spent two days in the hospital, however it was not with my sister's baby. it was with my dad. he is doing better, but please keep him in your prayers that he makes a strong recovery from his complications with his knee surgery.

i am so grateful for my friends and family that continue to stand by us despite all of our shortcomings and faults. if there is one thing that i can reflect on being the main thread, or theme, of my 2008, it's: Family. family is so important to me, and means so much to me. we have been blessed in so many ways - but at the end of the day, none of it means anything if i don't have my family.

i wish you, my friends and family, a wonderful 2009 - may you all have faith in the future, stregth to press forward and health in your family.

love,

The Makin Clan
