The First One

Christina's First Blog Post of 2009

Usually at the start of a new year, everyone sets resolutions for themselves. After one or two days, you revert back to your old ways.
This year has proven to be different. As we start 2009 I have been "newly crowned" a single mother. Certainly not a new years resolution that I was looking for, but again, not totally my decision. My resolutions were good but not that.
One of my resolutions, which is now changing shape, is to start my own web page/blog. The blog was going to be about my family. Now I am going to redirect and use it as a way to record my transition and feelings too.
Happy new year, and yes, it is happy. Please don't think that this is a way to get pity. I don't have any negative feelings about this move. I am a positive person and always have been. Why change that now? I have been through worse, those of you who have known me for a while know my life has been anything but easy. I have always remembered one thing, God never gives me more than he knows I can handle. Through everything in life, as hard as it might have been, I have always learned something from my experience. I am sure my learning is just getting started.
Happy New Year to all!
More to come....
