The Best Year Yet

As 2015 comes to a close, it is a time to reflect on the ups and downs of the year, and look forward to the fresh start of a new year.

2015 was a time of challenges and changes for our family.  A lot of things going on behind the scenes that contributed to the decision to publish fewer posts.  The recognition that time is sacred – that you can’t have it back.  Big Boy started kindergarten and I have less and less time with him.  Baby Boy continues to be a “mama’s boy”, which of course can get overwhelming at times, but I’ve chosen to cherish the short time left that he’ll be asking to be held and snuggled.  I’m grateful for a husband who has shown strength and bravery this year, and I am thankful for every day with him.

I’ll be somewhat happy to leave 2015 behind.  I’m looking forward to 2016 – I feel that it’s going to be a great year.  Actually, I know it’s going to be a great year.  Perhaps even the best year yet.

May your 2016 bring you joy and happiness!
