And so the New Year begins…

It’s the New Year!  I can’t believe it.  Christmas 09 is done and in the record books, the tree is down, the decorations put away (except for the dirty dishes) and I have only one day of Christmas vacation left to enjoy.   My family had a long drawn out Christmas season with the last party just finishing up last night.  My father in law made our night when he announced that the new garage door opener for his shed was the best present he could have ever imagined.  My husband’s idea and he was so pleased to have pleased his dad.  My family now starts a countdown to graduation.  My youngest son graduates high school on June 13, 2010.  It has been an amazing journey with this my youngest son.  The one that I could focus on almost exclusively, the one who let me do everything one more time, the one that kept me younger than most of my counterparts, the one who keeps me current.  I have enjoyed it all and would not trade the experience for the world.  Well enough melancholy for now and it’s time to get on with 2010…I can’t wait to see what it brings..
