It is a new year and hopefully will be filled with fun and exciting moments just waiting to be memories for years to come. 2008 is the year that definitely has changed mine and my families life forever. What a jam packed year of ups and downs, some memories so fun and exciting (Brookie being born and fun vacations!) and others memories that have brought the most sadness I have ever endured. (the loss of Kamber) The year also brought lots of growth spiritually and of course physically since we are another year older and closer to 30. Would I change last year, I don't really know. I don't regret how much time we spent together as a family, I did have Kamber in my life for a short time and that last 7 months with her probably was the most fun, and we developed lots of beautiful memories in those last 7 months. Do I wish she never died, of course I do but would I bring her back now that she is with our Heavenly Father and in a perfect place, no way. I would sacrifice it all again just to have had her with us for that short time.
We are learning and growing every day and I am sure 2009 is going to be a struggle for us in every aspect but I know there will be lots of growth and learning that will come with this new year and new trial. We hope every one has a great new year to come.
Starting this new year I may not post everyday, I will post as often as I feel the need as I move through the emotions of loosing my sweet Kamber.
A Christmas post will be coming soon, when I feel that I can handle diving back into that emotional day.
Lots of Love,
Jen

I hope Christmas was good for you. I can understand it being an emotional time for your Family. It was emotional for us as well. But I think it helped me truly understand the reason for the Season. I felt closer to my Father in Heaven and was less concerned about the normal Holiday stresses. It was sad, but almost peaceful.
Your blog was in a conversation over the weekend with a couple nieces who blog and then again today with a co-worker who blogs. We all read your blog and feel such pain for your loss of Kamber. Our discussion today was about you not thinking you will blog very much during the coming year. We all felt that you should know that we would miss you and your posts. Blogging/journaling is suppose to help us emotionally, so please don't stop blogging about other parts of your life, as well as about Kamber. Start a separate blog if that would be something you would like to do. I know you don't even know us, but we think of you and have gained so much from what you have written. Thanks for sharing yourself with us.
