a year in snapshots.

i'm not much for writing things down at christmas time.

i could tell you about bill's new job and ventures.

i could talk about my reacquaintance with yoga and new found love of knitting.

i could rave about how incredible my one-year old is; how she is running, talking, learning and teaching us about love.

i could go into detail about our lives

but so much of it is already here

buried in the words

so instead i will show you.

i will show you how we have moved through life in the last year

i will share with you so many

but not nearly all

of the smiles we have had.

we have celebrated so many firsts this year

and it struck me that you only get one shot at the firsts.

i acknowledge that there will come a day

when we will celebrate the 'lasts' in life

but until then...

we continue to be blessed

and thankful

and look forward to all that lies ahead.

happy christmas.

go well.
