We spent Christmas with my family. It was nice and relaxing. We managed to fly through Chicago without a hitch and made it to Napa for Christmas. We were worried, but we made it. Mirabelle was sick most of the time we were there, but it was great to see her interact with her grandparents. They didn’t quite seem to know what to do with her when she was younger. Now she can play with them, do art and boss them around.
We are now firmly back into our daily routines. Mirabelle really enjoyed going to daycare today. She misses the attention everyone gives her. I actually like being back at work, but wish that my thesis was done. Maybe by May… hopefully by May. I think 2009 will be a great one for us, even though I think it will be a difficult one for the nation.
I wish everyone a great 2009.
