Graduation

It's been quite a while since I've posted, and for those of you actually checking here- I apologize. 

Today was Graduation Day (congratulations!).  It was a day of celebration and happiness.  We are so blessed that family could join us.  But amongst all the joy and pride, there is a slight tinge of sadness going on in the back of my mind.  Our time here has gone by so fast.  In just a few short weeks, we'll be heading home.  I've thought about this time for many months, but now that it's actually approaching- I'm wondering:

Could Time please slow down?

2012

So it's 2012.  Will this year be our last year on Earth?  I certainly hope not.  But the way I see it, this is going to be one heck of a good year.  It's a year of goodbyes (to our life in Japan) and hellos (to all back home).  A year of change (new jobs- hopefully).  A year of new beginnings.  I've got a good feeling about it.
