december.

what. a. year.

i rappelled off a building. i faced someone who crushed my family. i grieved the loss of my grandpa. i ran my first 5k. i learned about infancy loss and heartbreak from a friend who openly and bravely grieved the loss of her son. i took a promotion at work. i was part of a birth team and watched my nephew come into the world. i turned 30. i applied to go to africa. i got accepted. i raised 3500 in three months. i joined a small group at church. i celebrated. i mourned. i praised. and i struggled. i grew.

all i can concentrate on now is being ready to go to uganda in just a few weeks. i can only pray that 2018 is as full of life, adventure, challenge, and fearlessness as this year was.

cheers, 2017. you were a wild one.
