2011 was a brilliant year for the Robertson family, yes there were lows but they were far outweighed by the highs and as I am getting older I am realising the importance of leaving the lows in the past and focusing on all the wonderful blessings we are given each year.

In 2011

• We moved into our new home midway through January
  
• I spend a wonderful weekend with some of my closest friends in Edinburgh to celebrate my birthday
  
• Nicholas started and loved nursery school in April
• We celebrated 3 happy years spent in England in May
  
• Our beautiful second baby daughter was born at the beginning of June
• My mother visited us for 6 weeks in the June/July
• My Sister-in-Law Jann spent a week with us in August
• I became God-Mother to little Tom Card in October
  
• We found a wonderful new church to attend where we feel comfortable
• We all continued in excellent health
• Simon's job has remained secure despite the recession which may be one of the biggest blessings of all.

To look forward to in 2012

• The culmination of the "Big Bicycle Recycle" in January
• Choosing Megan's GCSE subjects in February
• A weekend in Bath with my gorgeous girlfriends to celebrate my birthday in March (the start of a tradition I think)
• My dad's visit in May/June
• Phillip starting secondary school in September
• Nicholas starting infant school in September
• My Mom spending Christmas with us in December
  
• The launch of my new business at some point during the year....this is the year it will happen

Such a lot to look forward to and I am without doubt that there will be more blessings along the way for our family.
