So this is it, this is my first blog post in a couple of years. Just like Will with his roller skates, I'm trying something new. I'm thinking that the first one back is the hardest, I hope at least. For a pretty private person this is huge for me and my journey. A journey that I'm determined to take into myself and my life. I have a whole lot of New Year's resolutions and this is one of them. To blog about me and our family so that one day we can look back and remember this precious time. My previous posts about Sophia have been both heart wrenching and beautiful to go back and read, but I am so glad they're there.

So, resolution #1-Start to blog again, #2- To be healthy! As many of you may know, I have been a slave to the night shift for 5 years. That is 5 years too long. All of Will's life and all of our marriage I have been a cranky and sleep deprived space cadet. I start a new chapter on January 21st....day shift! This is a real game changer and I cannot wait to be normal again. I'm hoping day shift can help with a lot of things, my moods, my diet, and my tan (being asleep during the day can really make a girl pale)! I'm ready to eat more salads and drink less caffeine in hopes of becoming the ulimate ME. A better person, mother, and wife. Watch out, once I hit day shift I'm going to be unstoppable! #3-To pick up a new hobby. My wonderful husband bought me an amazing Nikon camera for Christmas because he knew that I wanted to get into photography. Unfortunaley, I'm really into instant gratification and I haven't yet taken the time to read and learn how to use it to it's full capacity, but so far I love it. My favorite subject so far is Will as I'm sure you'll be able to tell. #4, 5, 6- Stop yelling, be more patient, and no more curse words. I don't think those need any explanation :) If my boy can be brave, so can I!
