Happy New Year!  I for one am thrilled to say goodbye to 2007, which if I may be blunt, blew donkey balls.  And as my son keeps assuring me by screaming in my ear, "2008 WILL BE GREAT!" so really who am I to disagree?

I'm looking forward.  We're done having babies, and have moved on to the foxhole section of our parenthood.  We're very glad that we stopped at two children as it's easier to chase after, and sit on if necessary, one child each.  I kid of course, kinda.  We're happily watching our adorable, maniacal, already neurotic children grow and bond...and by bond I mean join forces against us.  But still.

2007 was a horribly hard year for our family.  Financial troubles, job woes, no job woes, things were dicey.  But through it all I think we found out what is really important, and I'm going to keep that in mind every day if it kills me (and it might).  I'm also resolving to quit the excuses.  Including any excuse to neglect my poor, long suffering blog.  I will write, because I love to write and because in keeping with the whole kumbaya family love yada yada, I find it's much better for my family if I say what I want to say here first, ya know, rather than screeching at them.
