Ahhh, hard to believe that 2010 is coming to a close already. New Year's Eve is a rather intriguing kind of a "holiday" to me. I really like getting together with friends and family and playing oodles of games and sharing lots of good food and laughter, but by the time midnight finally rolls around...It's kind of a letdown. It seems like there should be something more about this shift into a whole new year of fresh opportunities for change and growth, and yet...
As I look back over 2010 I'm proud of my venture into the world of professional writing and can only hope and pray for continued growth in this pursuit. I look at my gorgeous girl and can hardly believe she's four-years-old, has been out of diapers for the better part of a year, and has her ears pierced. We are less than two years away from kindergarten, which leaves me wondering just where I'm going to go once that happens.
Looking forward to 2011: I'm hoping Abby and I finally find our groove in working together on preschool stuff. I hope I continue to get picked up to do freelance work for Simply Family Magazine. I can hardly believe I will be 30 this year, and wonder if this will be the year where I officially feel like an adult. (Part of me doubts this will ever happen for me, I have too much kid inside, but ya never know). The husband and I will celebrate 9 married years together already. Madness! While my parents will celebrate a major landmark in their marriage; celebrating 40 years!
With much behind us, yet so very much to come, I guess it's okay if New Year's Eve doesn't live up to all its hype. Wishing you and your family a spectacular 2011!
