Goodbye 2012

As we say goodbye to 2012… we look forward to the new year, 2013… we look forward with a renewed hope , a strong desire thing will get better or stay good, the issues from the past year slowly fade to memory and we look forward to new and exciting experiences….  I am hopefully optimistic for growth and maturity… things with behavior will get better; we will start to understand how important it is to listen to adults so we will stay safe. The past few months have been pretty good. Things seem to be turning around… Thanksgiving and Christmas were wonderful. We did a lot of stuff as a family and we learned some new things. Hannah turned 6! We had a party....with a bounce house and friends, cake and gifts. We celebrated for 6 days... since we were off school for thanksgiving break! We did a lot of fun things. As Christmas got closer Hannah got very excited … we looked at a lot of Christmas lights. We decorated 3 Christmas trees… we baked a ton of cookies and we had a lot of fun, very special moments I will always cherish. Hannah also received an academic award from school. She is excelling full speed with all the academics. I am very proud how smart she is and how hard she works on her school work. There is so much for us to be thankful for, we tend to lose sight of the good stuff sometimes, because the “bad”  stuff clouds our vision. I think this year we will focus on the good things and we will learn to deal with the “bad” with less stress. Hope everyone has a wonderful 2013!
