oh Mr. New Year...

2011 has flown by, sadly.  It was a year of falling in love with a new baby boy, celebrating our first year of marriage together, and attempting to readjust our lives and begin our own family.  Every new year I look back and wonder how it went by so quickly, but having a baby really speeds things up.

Witnessing the first year of a child's life is like watching a movie on fast forward - every week there is a difference, every day there is enormous growth.  It helps me appreciate every short day, look forward to the quiet moments I get to spend with my little family, and be grateful for our happiness.

I keep telling myself that 2012 will be the year I "catch my breath," maybe slow down the major life events?  I'm sure having a toddler, possibly beginning Graduate courses, and having Tyce in school and work full time will keep us busy enough!
