2012 was a great year in our household.Babygirl arrived three days in and was a ray of sunshine from her first moment. She still is a little peanut nearly a year later. She is so strong and smart that she amazes me every day.
Littlesoldierboy graduated from grade school and got accepted into the welding program in high school. He attended his first dance - with a date and although I cried a little, I was happy for him to be experiencing new events in his life. He is growing into a young man that any girl would be lucky to have in the future - way future.
During the year we made an effort to spend more quality time together. In the summer we visited the beach. In the fall we went apple and pumpkin picking. And just as the winter was approaching, we took two family vacations. Florida was fun but Montego Bay felt more like a vacation. Sun, beach, and frozen cocktails. My kind of vacation.
We also had Storm Sandy hit our state and force us to be without power for 8 days. Although this wasn't a highlight of the year, it did force us to spend quality family time without technology. Always a silver lining.
If I had to do a high and low of the year it would be: High - babygirl's birth; Low - learning that I may be losing my job in early spring. The news was shared wiht us two weeks before Christmas. Needless to say, it has been an emotional last couple of weeks. I am hoping there is a possibility that I won't lose it, but if I do, I'm at least hoping I find something quick that will allow me to provide for my family. Someone here is keeping her fingers crossed.
Hello 2013. You have a lot to live up to. We want more laughs than tears, move love than sorrow, and more time spent together.
Like every year, my resolutions include eating healthier, exercising, and spending more quality time with my family. Time is so precious and I don't want to waste any of it.
This year I am also going to try and take the 365 day challenge. 365 days of pics and posts to document our life, one day at a time.
