Well it seems like I waited to the last possible moment to write this. I thought about writing this last week but it was like note that Year's not over yet so you waited all week and then I was going to ride earlier but I got distracted.
This year has been really an emotional rollercoaster. And as I get older every year seems like it's the worst year that can't get harder but somehow it does. And then I realized we always get through it. We are here today you know and that's thanks to the people around us thanks to friends and family supporting us and thanks to Heavenly Father watching over us.
If you've been following my blog this year yeah I write sporadically and I'm not constantly up-to-date and I'm sorry about that but Amber got pregnant and we found out this time last year. And very shortly after that found out she had gallstones. So that was a trial and a half in itself. And then one day when she was at the doctors I think for her surgery for the gallstones I broke my ankle at the hospital. So this summer wasn't fun for us but we had just started going back to church and they have been so nice helping us for the past year I don't know where we'd be if it wasn't for Ambers coworkers and the church.
And then baby Carter came. And it is just both really awesome and a trial in and self taking care of a new baby and a 4 year old girl. But Livia loves her baby brother so much. We're really blessed with how much she loves and cares for him. It is just amazing to see her eyes filled with so much love for him. And then in September we got in a car accident. Really scared all of us, but we are all fine and none of us got majorly injured. Which I thank God everyday for because It could've turned out really bad but it didnt.
And speaking of church Amber and I were once again called to be primary workers. And then Amber was just recently called to be counselor for the young women's. Which she is really excited about and she has always wanted to be part of the young women's program in church. And I love teaching kids in Church. There is just something about a child's eyes when they get scriptural Doctrine. And you can see them understand what they are being taught. It's a blessing in itself to know that the children understand. And to see them growing in their faith it's just amazing.
Christmas came and went and I turned 32. And I don't know it feels different. When I had my 30th birthday it was kind of depressed because can I was turning 30 and I have no degree no Career no prospects under my belt and all my friends and I have no degree no Creer no prospects under my belt and all my friends I went to HighSchool with we're having you know really good jobs and good careers and they're just amazing and I'm proud of them. But then I graduated in 2017 with my AAS in paralegal studies. And this year I have a plan to go back to school and get my bachelor's most likely in Justice studies whith the emphasis of criminal justice. So hopefully that will only take me two more years if not a little bit longer will be fine. And I may or may not it depends on a lot of things but I may go to law school.
So this next year we'll have a different set of challenges but I think we are ready to face them. And I just love my family. They are the best support system a man can ask for. I wish you all a Happy New Years and may this one bring you happiness.
