Well, here we are, another year passed us by. I considered doing a year in review post, like so many other wonderful posts I’ve read so far, but when I sat down to write it, it was kind of pathetic. January: rang in the New Year at home with Dylan and Tom. February: celebrated Valentine’s Day with Dylan and Tom. July: turned 30, celebrated with Dylan and Tom. August: (this is a biggie) Dylan turned ONE, celebrated with mom and day. You get the picture.

It was an uneventful year, in that nothing over the top good or remarkably bad happened. It was a good year, simple, filled with laughter. And I am thankful for it.

2012 will be a year of refocus for me. Motherhood, marriage, writing: these are my parts, and I’m going to use the new year as an opportunity to devote myself to them anew. No specific resolutions (don’t believe in them), but just a reorganization and prioritizing of time and energy. I’m getting back to what’s important, and making it important again. More to come, as I start at the beginning again in so many ways.

Happy New Year everyone. Thank you, sincerely, for coming along on this journey, and for reading my words. I look forward to sharing more in the coming year, and to learning along the way. Be safe my friends. See you on the flip side.
