a good start

The first day of 2010. A fresh start. A new beginning. This is good.

Since I'm a bit of an all or nothing kind of girl, i have high hopes for this coming year. My resolutions run long. This year is expected to be life changing. (Come to think of it, I can't exactly come up with a year where life hasn't changed a bit...but you know what i mean.) I have big plans.

This...this is big. This blog. This is a good start today. A start in the direction i want to be heading. A scary start. But here goes...

Other than this, today was not terribly unusual. A good day. Good meals, time together.

I opened my very first jar of my first ever canned jalapenos and was not dissappointed.

Painting, playing, movie watching. Me, being a mama. Kids, being kids. Good.

Here is my favorite part of the day, though. The perfect beginning to this exciting new year...

and she said, "look, mama, it's the sun!"

Happy New Year!

and now, it's time to jump...
