Seemed an appropriate title, given that today, thanks to a great contact found on Twitter, we had a free photo shoot with a lovely local photographer. Its just one of the amazing experiences I have gleaned from this little microblogging site, and I cannot understate the role it had in my life in 2010.
And what a year it was. All one has to do is read my blog this past year to know that this was hands down the most eventful, monumental, exceptional years of my life, and one that rocked the foundation upon which the prior 37 years had been based.
But it's all good, people, it's ALL GOOD.
Because, as painful and heartbreaking as the year was, it was also the most beautiful, and it culminated in the arrival of our delicioius twin girls, Alexandra and Hailey. Life at its most incredible, and most fragile, was illustrated to us. Life at its most resilient and death-defying, was also illustrated. And through it all, we have a new and healthy family.
This year also crystalized for me my awareness of the incredible community of family and friends we have backing and supporting us as we tackle life's unique challenges. What can be said about this support except that we are very, very fortunate people. As far as I am concerned, we have won the global lottery where we are and with what we have. It's not overstated or sentimental; it is fact.
And so...while I don't have a lot of time to summarize what has happened, I can flash back to this time, and know that moving forward it will make me appreciate the incredible moments that are already stacking up.
My only wish is that others have such experiences. Happy New Year everyone...may it be wondrous, new, and ground-breaking, as ours will be.
