As 2014 draws to a close, I feel compelled to reflect on what the year held and what I’m grateful for. Unfortunately, I’m not one of those people who keep a “blessings jar” throughout the year, so I have no choice but to do this from the top of my head…
January 31 I found out my wife was pregnant. Hence the Jan 31 post. bigsmile Of course, this kind of set the stage for my year!
In April I visited Hong Kong and mainland China for the first time. What a great (if short, whirlwind) trip! Can’t wait to go back.
In May I was privileged to take my wife to Sweden and Denmark with me. We had a great time and it was a nice “last vacation” before the baby was born and we found the perfect place to take a gender reveal photo.
This has been an incredibly busy and challenging year for work as well. In addition to the teams in Sweden, Singapore, and the U.S., I also hired our first team member to be placed in the India office.
Of course, October 4 was a life altering day for Alicia and me. Daniel is an amazing blessing to us and we have thoroughly enjoyed seeing him grow up over the last three months. All the changes we’ve seen in such a short time are amazing.
Finally, I just want to say how incredibly thankful I am for my precious wife Alicia. The transformation she has undergone in becoming a mother has been nothing less than inspiring. The love and care she shows our son while continuing to take care of an impossible husband is incredible.
So, going into 2015, I thank God for my amazing wife and dashing son, along with all the challenges and blessings we’ve experienced during 2014.
Happy New Year and God bless you all!
