I have been reflecting on 2008, and what it has brought both to myself and to Melody. 

This year saw us get approval for Melody to stay in Australia for the next two years, after which she should be granted permanent residency.  This time last year we had just submitted a our immigration application and were nervously awaiting feedback from them.  Another year, and my angel and I will hopefully be celebrating granting of our spousal visa.

This year, Melody was very productive, both finishing her first book, and getting a good way through her second one as well.  I am so very proud of her, and am looking forward to reading the finale of her latest book.

This year saw us adopt our two lovely guinea pigs: Gig and Molly, who bring us so much joy and we love dearly.

This year, we travelled back to Canada for a month to visit Melody’s family, and we also travelled across from British Columbia through to Alberta, and camped in Banff, one of Melody’s favourite places.  

It also saw one year in my job at ISP I work for.

I am grateful for the things that this year has brought us, and look forward to 2009 being another great year.

Happy New Years!

April.
