Happy New Year

Last year was busy, crazy, stressful, worrisome, and wonderful. This year promises incredible adventures, lots of learning, and a new start for my little family. It's amazing to me that each year with my boys gets better and better. Johnny and I start our 5th year of marriage in February and my babies will turn 2 and 3 this year! Ready for some cliche mom advice? Too bad, because here they are: Cherish every second; they really do shoot by, barely even seen.

Johnny's family visited for 9 days, which was hectic but fun. Seeing everyone, especially the 3 cousins, gathered together was a blessing.

My family arrives tomorrow. They will leave my sister here for a couple weeks while they do a book tour in New York and Canada and return to spend another week with us.

January has been extremely busy and will continue to be so. Johnny has begun his language training. I study with him at night. We're hoping to pick it up very quickly. The goal is to leave for India in June. I also need to squeeze a Florida trip in there somewhere.

Happy 2010!
