I’ve said for a long time that I don’t really like New Year’s. I realized that I don’t especially like going out on New Year’s Eve but I LOVE the New Year. I love thinking of exciting and fresh goals for the year and so far this year I have particularly enjoyed looking back on 2018. It wasn’t necessarily a significant year for me “goal-wise” but I did grow and give birth to a third human, so there’s that. This year will definitely go down in the books as a big one for us. The year four suttons became five. Maggie learned to swim and spell her name. Jackson played basketball and had not one but two casts! We played in the snow, hiked in the mountains, swam in the ocean, played at the Y, went to parks, painted, read, went to the library, played with our neighbors. It was a year of baby prep and baby cuddles.
Can’t wait to see how these three grow and surprise us in 2019.
