Happy New Year!

2022 is almost here. It's hard to believe that another year has passed. A sign of aging - the slipperiness of time. Granted this was a busy year, perhaps one of the fullest we've ever had, and hopefully, the busiest we will ever have.  Blessedly, the past few months, although full, have given us time to breath. And although December was busy, it was a very normal Christmas season, almost quiet. We had all the kids home for a few days, which was wonderful. They enjoyed each other's company, and we enjoyed their company. We didn't do much - a light show and concert, a dinner out, a short hike, several delicious meals at home, Mass, gift exchange. We made some cookies for the neighbors, sent Christmas cards, and lounged a lot. A quick trip to visit grandparents and some of the cousins was made at the end of the month. And the two middle kids took off to Germany, a trip with a few bumps, for a week together, and then our oldest daughter will spend the semester there. All in all, the last few weeks were restorative. Now we are ready to start another year. Resolutions coming soon!
