The last day of the year always remind me of my first day in New Zealand. Growing up in a traditionally loud and lively New Year’s Eve setting, that night on the 31st of December 2006 was exceptionally quiet.
It symbolized the dawn of a new year, full of hope for a new life.
Six years hence was filled with patchy ‘highs and lows’, but never a time of regret. With life’s uncertainties, the Lord has continually blessed my family with a deeper faith and stronger mind.
I feel nostalgic each time I look at this photo – ’coz it takes me back to that moment six years ago when I first laid eyes on this awesome site near Wellington airport. Lush greens and deep blues! I couldn’t have chosen a more beautiful country to be our new home …
and yes, I do declare, I love NZ!
