Happy New Year



It is hard to come back to reality and work after a wonderful and extremely relaxing Christmas holiday. I loved spending every hour of every day with the the three people I love more then anything in this world.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas holiday and New Year. I can’t believe another year has gone by. Time seems to pass faster as you get older, it is a strange sensation.

I wonder what 2010 has in store for us. I believe and feel that 2008 and 2009 were good to us so I tread into the new decade with a little trepidation.

The New Year Resolutions have been written, divided into categories of health, spirituality, education, family and finances.
A direction has been put forth and slowly we move forward step by step.
Though it is interesting, no matter what direction you head in, it seems that life just seems to turn you around. Sometimes you head in a different direction, sometimes you turn around and go back, sometimes you just feel a little disoriented but no matter what you just keep walking the path of life.

Last night I cuddled with Amira and Cleo and we read “Oh, the Places You'll Go” by Dr Seuss. I have read it before but last night I was so enthralled,touched and inspired by this wonderful story of encouragement and direction.
A story of success and failure, winning and losing, experiencing and learning, holding strong and moving forward.

It came to me that the most important resolution I can make for every year is to continue and to try harder in being an example to my beautiful children.
To show that you walk the path of life with courage, strength and with your head held high.
To teach them that there will be laughter and there will be tears.
There will be joy and there will be pain. They will win and they will lose.
To teach them that there is a purpose for it all.
To love, learn and experience.
Everyone has their own unique journey.
