It's 2009, can you believe it? It seems we were celebrating the turn of a new millennium just yesterday. We were reminiscing about that over dinner last night and laughing. Here in Miami it was what we consider freezing (never mind, all you Northerners!) and we went to a block party at a friend's home. There were way too many of us to cram inside, so there were chimineas placed strategically around the front lawn and we huddled gratefully around as we sipped champagne. Frankly, we just wanted it to be midnight already so that we could retreat to the warmth of our homes.
All five of us attended, my husband and I and our three children, because it was a once-in-a-lifetime thing; an historic event. Last night, in contrast, we were one child short as the oldest son was at his girlfriend's celebrating with her family. But that 'one-less' number was filled in by the presence of our younger son's new wife of one week and a day.
Change. We seem to be rolling in it here at our house. :)
What will this new year bring? We don't know, and don't want to know. That would spoil all the fun!
