2011? Okay. Bring it on. I'll take more of the same from 2010 please.
And like our New Year's Day family tradition of homemade soup in a bread bowl, I'll take more of the same in this new year as last year provided.
Except with new stuff too . . . just like this year we made this soup instead of our regular minestrone.
More of the same. With a little something new. I like it.
Addendum: I'd just like to live it well. You know? I just want to be present in each fleeting, wispy, diaphanous moment of this life. Of this year. Of this lightening speed of a freight train called motherhood. Of my everyday moments with my husband. As a steward of this Earth. I just really want to feel it all. And be there.
Happy New Year.

Give me a bowl of that soup and some coffee with kahlua and I'd be happy too! I'll even do the dishes!
Hope you have a wondeful year Dana!
Me too Dana. These babies sure are growing quickly. My baby starts school next year... that's very wierd being able to say that! I am resolved this year to enjoy the moment more. Relax with life a little more. And work to live not live to work... so I am trying to find a balance that will enable me. Hope you don't stand on any Lego. Got to love playing with it but jeepers those little bits hurt! Love that soup in a bread bowl idea. What sized buns do you use?
You got it right kiddo...don't blink!!
What a wonderful way to start the new year...I want some next time we visit!;)
Wonderful! You used the word diaphanous! What a cool word! I need your bread recipe, it looks wonderful!
So well said! Me too!
More of the same is a very good thing! I love it. My motto is to live in this moment, so I cheered after reading your addendum. It's really a great way to live, allowing you to stop and smell the roses more often. Happy new year, Dana!
Enjoy - particularly your children while they are young because all too soon they are grown up - enjoy the now xxx
I think you definitely "get" it. Your enjoyment of your kids, family, life is so evident and so beautiful. I love seeing the kids cooking; their faces are great! And Legos...wow, I remember the Lego years...and so do my feet...haha. Happy New Year!;
That sounds great! Happy New Year!
happy new year, dana, and thank you for another year of warm, fun, helpful, and funny reading!!!!

Happy (belated) New Year! I'd like more of the same with a little new too! :)

Live it well.... Yes, me too. Good or bad just live it well. Taking time to look at a face, give that hug, do something kind. Happy New Year Dana, it's been fun!
