Looking Forward

2025

I leave 2024 with a heart of gratitude. God has moved mountains in so many areas. I am grateful for His presence in my life and in the lives of my family.

 

My daughter, Maria, turned 18 in September and is getting ready to graduate high school. She has chosen Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, Tennessee to continue her education in the fall. She will pursue a degree in Elementary Education with a minor in music. I am proud, happy, and sad at the same time.

 

My son and daughter-in-law became homeowners for the first time in 2024. Halle will give birth to their first child, a son, in April. To say I look forward to becoming a Nonna is an understatement.

 

Randy & I will celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary in 2025. The events over the last several years could break a relationship. Ours has grown stronger. God has been faithful.

 

As I go into 2025, I look ahead to challenges that running a business bring. God in in control and He will provide every need according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus. I go forward knowing everything God has done for Wedgewood and remember those things as faith builders for what I know He is about to do.

 

I look forward to getting to know my new grandson and celebrating our anniversary. My heart is preparing as we watch our final child get ready to leave for college.

 

My word of the year for 2025 is ‘rectify’. Rectify means to make right.
