Dear 2009,
I have to say you have not been my favorite year. You have brought too much sadness and bad news. In case you don't remember I will list out all that you have given us...
In April, you took Colby's job away.
In May and June, you made Lisa really sick and made her go through very difficult surgeries.
In August, you gave Colby's Mom cancer.
In October, you gave us unimaginable heartbreak that is not quite blog-able
In November, you took my job away.
I have to say that I am very excited to celebrate you out of the world tomorrow.
It is only fair to say that amidst all that bad, you have given us some happy moments as well.
Colby has been able to peruse his dream of being his own boss and has been very successful in it.
Colby's mom has finished all her treatment, and preliminary results show that all the cancer is gone.
You took us to Hawaii in October and I didn't break my leg this time.
We have developed stronger friendships that will last a lifetime with those who have helped us through this hard year.
I have had the most wonderful Christmas break with no work getting in the way.
I guess I have learned to look for all the good around us even during all the hardships, and when it comes down to it, that is a lesson I will be forever grateful for.
Thanks 2009 for an unforgettable year.
Cortney
