Mrs. Miller says it best…
Christmas LOVE
Not only at Christmas, but all year long…
As we look back and celebrate 2014, we realize this was a year of love. What better time of year to reflect on true love than at Christmas? Although our love story has no comparison to the love God showered on us with Baby Jesus, we are grateful everyday for the fairy tale God’s hand had in our lives. Never forgetting the true story of Christmas, we will reflect on the memories of 2014 and reminisce of the miracle of Jesus birth.
The Miller’s looked a little like this: the first moment of the year, we “took a dive together”…literally into a 55 deg pool at the strike of midnight to kick off our year under the stars. (The star has great meaning, and even shone bright where our Savior was born). Frantic some might have expected was calm and relaxing for us as we prepared for our wedding. Mind you, we had a year to get all the kinks worked out and details sorted. If any of you know us, we are planners, thus smooth sailing ahead. Time seemed to fly and before we knew it, we were married in a beautiful ceremony on March 28th, the 3rd month of the year. (For those of you who don’t know, “3” is our number…, and three is significant of the wise men who came to celebrate the birth, the birth in manager, in Bethlehem). It was truly fabulous! We are blessed with many friends and family to have made our day unforgettable. For those who shared our moment in person, and those who were in our hearts, we thank you for all your love and support!
Fast forwarding now to somewhere in mid July – James had an opportunity to take a career change. Approached for the 3rd time, he saw this is a sign. Under sleepless nights and fear of the unknown, he stumbled across a “yes” and is now teaching Medical Foundations at Willow Canyon High School. Here he has been able to touch many lives, to “coach from a soap box” in his 40 chair off white classroom, to be the voice of inspiration at sports games, and to have become teacher of the month after having gotten his feet wet, 4 months in. I know the “Scrooge and Santa Claus” moments (that went viral on my Facebook page) had nothing to do with it, but show his love and soul upon which now he is embarking.
I continue to work toward forwarding my career in PT, and in someday owning a clinic. Woman hours have gone to educating the public on functional strengthening and injury prevention, talks on the benefits of physical therapy in any training process – running, sports, cross fit, and simply for the weekend warriors, and the beginning of leadership training. I continue to learn about myself and grow. I couldn’t do it without such a wonderful husband and friend at home, cheering me on along the way, supporting and encouraging me. We are truly blessed to be here! Furthermore, we are blessed that not only this Christmas season, but always – God guides our steps, carries us when we can’t walk, and has given us something greater to be Thankful for at the end of the day, & the finale to the close of the year. Merry Christmas!
ps….I love you Babygirl……
