Happy New Year!

My first post in 2009. I hope you all arrived safely and happy in the new year. May all your wishes and hopes come true. And don't stress yourself out with too many new year's resolutions.

We had a big new year's eve party with 20 adults and 17 kids between 1 and 9 years - fun but messy! Now everything is back to normal in my house, Christmas decorations are gone and I am preparing for my daughter Mia's 2nd birthday tomorrow. I am making cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. 

Some people, no matter how old they get, never lose their beauty — they merely move it from their faces into their hearts.
