it's that time of year... :)

...when the world falls in love with every song [it] hears.

I always love that lyric from "The Christmas Waltz" (even after finding out it's slightly wrong).
This Christmas has been different, for sure--my daddy and sister are both miles and miles away, but at the same time, I'm so thankful for the opportunity to spend so much time with my mommy this past week :) much more so than I usually do, since I normally pack my breaks with plans with friends.

So much to reflect on for this past year, this past semester, but in a word, God is good. He's taught me so much about studying and schoolwork, leadership (in IV), relationships, and desiring to know Him more. :) One possible resolution for 2011...blog more.
