A Monday off is a rarity for me, and there is just nothing like it. Ya know? Sleeping in, morning snuggles with both of my guys (all of the daughters were spending the night away), bacon and eggs (cooked by the husband), pajamas the entire day....just nothing like it.
We did manage to get all of the Christmas trees and decorations put away today. It made me sad, and the house looks empty, but now we are officially ready to welcome a new year. I will be the very first to say an overly enthusiastic "SO LONG" to 2013. It has been a trying year, to say the least, but I would be lying if I said I haven't learned a whole heck of a lot about myself, about parenthood, about friendships, about prayer....about life. I feel like this year has been a test-- or more like a pop quiz-- on many levels, and, If I'm being honest, I would probably give myself a "B-", but whatev. I'm not perfect, and atleast I passed.
My hope for 2014 is that I can take all of my lessons, and use them to somehow become a better version of Maryann. A better version of Mommy. A better version of Robby's wife and best friend.
No matter what, I have never been able to deny that I am loved. What's more important than that, my friends? I can't think of a thing. :) xoxo
