It’s a new year, and for someone who is on the OCD spectrum, the start of a new year, in a new decade is almost as good as it gets in terms of starting things fresh - so imagine the disappointment when my plan for us to watch the first sunrise didn’t quite rise to the occasion. Praise God, He’s the God of second chances!
This morning – on the second day of the new year, with overcast skies compared to yesterday’s bright sunshine – we found ourselves (most of us still in pyjamas, or partly, anyway) on the beach at 05h30 watching the sunrise. There’s something pretty special about having my little family with me, marveling at the beauty of creation, and the grace of second chances. And, seeing as though we had some time between then and when we could get a decent cup of coffee, we set about plotting our Family Bucket List for this year.
You’ll see a couple familiar items on the list (it’s important that we get to them and not just drop them), as well as some new, pretty ambitious ones. Keep watching the blog to see how it all unfolds!
Ps. You’ll notice I’ve not mentioned regular blogging; I appear to be on a losing streak!
