In With the New...

Jack and I had a very quiet and un-eventful New Year's Eve, complete with some bubbly and movie-watching. What a very perfect (and very opposite) way to end our extra busy 2010!

When October arrived, I couldn't believe it was fall. When November breezed in, I thought, "no way!" When Thanksgiving passed, I thought I had a month until Christmas. The day after Christmas, I felt slighted out of a December. Now January is here, and I'm in denial. 2010 may quite possibly have been the fastest year of my entire life. I'm still not sure where it went.

I know I wasn't spending all of my time blogging (sorry, loyal readers)! I do know that I lived it, and loved it, but, goodness did it squeeze me dry. I'm short on sleep, my house is unorganized and my to-do list is ever-growing. However, my laugh lines are deeper, my heart is happy and I have loads to memories to show for our year. We celebrated (a LOT) and hosted gatherings (a LOT)...I got a new teaching position at work...organized a 5K, and ran in quite a few, too...watched a little boy grow from "Here comes Trouble" to "Inquisitive Explorer & Sports Enthusiast"...baffled at how my FIVE-year-old impresses us every day...and then I blinked, and it was January, 2011! May I cherish every moment, and hold time still as long as I can. Because, you know what? Life is good...
