I had every intention of starting this post off in a sarcastic, comical tone....but then the Little Dictator fell asleep on top of me and melted my snarky heart. C'est la vie....
Today is day 1 of this 365 day journey. I normally don't really pay attention to the sentiments of New Years-I always fail miserably at making resolutions and then realizing half way through the year I never got past writing some down. However-this year is gonna be different. Yessirree. Why? Because...well, you're just going to have to take my word for it.
We got back from my parent's house 2 days ago, and it looked like we were living in a shelter with all of our crap strewn every where. Add in the Little Dictator's flair for decorations and you can understand how much fun it was trying to pick up. However, halfway into the task of putting up Christmas decorations and clearing a walkable pathway, I stopped and realized something-how massively grateful I am to have tiny cupcakes under my feet, a Minnie Mouse vacuum to trip over, and mounds of ADORABLE little girls clothes to put away. This is what I have been dreaming about for YEARS, and now I have it. The mess means I have enough to provide my little one with toys and clothes and everything she needs to feel loved and secure, and the house I store them all in means I have a roof over my head to provide me with shelter. I mean, I've got it pretty good.
Ok-having to sign off for now. Not too sure how long I have before being summoned back to the holding area, so singing off for now. Catch you all on the flip side!!
