All the presents have been opened and the kids have tried out all their new toys. We took down the christmas tree and packed away all the decorations. So, now what?
This week we still have Eric's birthday to celebrate. And then it's time to usher in the new year.
As we say goodbye to 2010 and welcome to 2011, I've been trying to take some time to reflect over the past year and look forward into the next.
This year hasn't been easy on us. As I look back over it, I hope to learn from my mistakes and gain strength from the disappointments. I will treasure the good memories and hope for many more to come.
I will not make any New Years resolutions for the upcoming year. After the first month they seem to get pushed to the wayside and then I usually feel guilty for not succeeding. As I plan for all the changes that will be coming in the next year, I will make the effort to keep my heart open to new experiences and people. I will try to see the lesson in everything I encounter and embrace the beauty that surrounds me. I know I need to be patient and good things will happen.
