Ah, the end of the year. Time to reminisce about the last twelve months and resolve for the next. Except… I got nothing.

2006? It was fine. It was tiring. There wasn’t enough sleep. You know why? Because we had a baby. They’re a lot of work, those babies.

2007? Um, no plans. This Tuesday will look a lot like last Tuesday, which looked fairly akin to the Tuesday before that.

There will be snacks and learning activities and trips to the park. There will be Quiet Time in the new year. (Dear God, please let there be Quiet Time in the new year. Amen.) There will be visits with friends, visits to Dane’s office, visits with grandparents. There will be reading and writing and listening, oh my. But new, for the new year? No idea. No new ventures to plan, no new philosophies to espouse, no news to announce. Just plain old life, continued. And that’s enough.
