I have been pondering about what this next year might bring... I have been very, no, extremely blessed in 2008. I am scared- I worry about everything, as you all know. I think I worry so much that my hair is falling out(although I have been told by friends/family that its due to post partum- we will find out soon for sure) I am hoping for the best and yet fear the worst.
I think that we all come up with New Years Resolutions. Lose weight, eat better, sleep more, etc... whatever it may be. I ask that this year, instead of resolutions that you have tried before or that last 2-3 days, I challenge you all to come up with a change- A change that will not only impact you but all close around you. Ponder, really search for something that could be positive.
My change is for "making each day count" as said by Jack in the Titanic movie (played by Leonardo DiCaprio. I am saddened each day that I can't spend them with my Taylor. I know that I will have my time with him later- but it doesn't make it any easier because later is not now. Patience is part of my change. Patience for that future with my Taylor, but also patience with the present. My kids are amazing. I love them so much... They are the reason that I get up each day- for the smiles that are on my face, for the laughter that rings through my house, just to have them with me each day. To make each day count- We will never get today again. We will miss yesterday and look forward for tomorrows.
I don't mean to sound cheesy- but MAKE EACH DAY COUNT while you can. May we all be blessed in 2009.

I totally get that. I usually don't make resolutions or at least not seriously. Although I have a screaming child while I grocery shop, I would rather have that than not at all. I always am reminding myself to take a step back and look at the situation. I love that you said we will never have today again, how true is that. I have a little message on my fridge that says "live everyday as if it were your last." I guess that is my eternal goal. Happy New Year! No one on this Earth can accomplish what you were sent her to do.
