I saw this little calendar of journal prompts called: “December Journaling If You Feel Like You Haven’t Achieved Much This Year,” and I thought I’d go ahead and give that a try. I’m dating this back to the 1st even though I forgot to do this until the 4th!

Three positive things that happened this year

I find this a little difficult, because even though I know I can easily think of three positive things that happened this year, I’m not sure I will think of the three BEST things and that’s what I’d really like to do. But I also don’t want to go back and look at stuff. So I’m going to write down what I think of now.

1. Sarah coming to live with us. This was in March and I am so glad she is here!

2. Belinda graduating from high school! She had a 4.0 and is now going to Northwestern Oklahoma State University and it makes me very happy and proud. I wish I was there right now, matter of fact!

Now that I did those two, I really want to think of something for Bennett and Lenora.

3. I’ll start with Lenora, because she moved back to Tuttle this summer after the lease ended on the Guthrie house. They lived in the apartment until this last month and now they’re in a duplex. Which is a little sad that she’s not here but also I’m happy for them! It was great having Ben R here too. He’s so positive and always such a good Christian witness.

4. And Bennett. Honestly, he’s doing so well at his job and just being steady. I went with him to some chamber events, a school board meeting, and city council meeting this year and it was fun! He comes over sometimes for lunch and it makes me so happy. Plus, I got to know Mia better this year and got to see her perform several times. That is all so good!

So that’s three+1 positive things that happened this year!
