Today Joshua and all of us begin a new year. The day dawned cold and dreary, hopefully not a portent of the coming year. The boy's spent the day playing mostly indoors but Jarrod did manage to get out and take in a bike ride. Our weather like much of the country will be much cooler over the next week or so.
We had a grand time watching Allie last night. She was a great baby and is infectiously cute to boot. This is a New Year that will be full of exploration and wonderment for her and her parent's and we will sit back and enjoy watching them as they journey together down a path we have trod before.
Our family's resolution this year is to be just that. A family. We have strength in each other and together we will face down all that comes against us. We will celebrate each and every day that we have together never forgetting how much life can change in a single instant. We will continue to battle the cancer that Joshua lives with every day. We will draw from his well of strength as we pour ours into him. We do not know what the future holds for us but we will continue to journey forward together as we have done all along.
We are strong.
We are a family.
May all of you who share our journey have a wonderful, blessed, and prosperous 2010. Thank you for traveling with our family.

Happy New Year.
Todays weather sucked. It was cold and wet, not the greatest mix. I like your friend D.J Jarrod. He is just like you in so many ways. ;)
Hope everyone has a great 2010.

Hey Snuggle Monkey,
So glad to hear everything is okay at the moment. I don't think I will ever tire of hearing your lives are routine and 'normal'.
Your Dad's right about Family - it makes the strongest bond in the world and can conquer anything!
Keep kickin butt Mighty Warrior - you are The Champion.
Tons of Love, Hugs and Kisses,
Nonna
