With all of the holiday hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping, wrapping, and attending fabulous parties it’s been hard to blog the last couple of weeks. I’ve been busy, busy, busy! Today I wanted to take a few minutes of uninterrupted “me time” to just write. This December has truly been special and I decided I wanted to write about it…
Why has December been so great? Well for starters, being engaged this holiday season has been absolutely amazing. Somehow knowing that in less than one year I’ll be married to my best friend and the love of my life has made everything so much more special and exciting. My fiance and I are constantly having a blast together and this Christmas season we’ve talked a lot about the upcoming 2012 year and our wedding and honeymoon plans. My mother-in-law always says to me, “the best has yet to come!” and I truly feel like life is just getting good!
Why else has December been awesome? Just a few days ago a brand new miracle and love in my life was born, my nephew. I cannot describe the overwhelming joy I felt when I received an email from my brother during the wee hours of the morning on December 18th that he finally arrived with his picture attached. Holding him for the first time was incredible. I realize I’m a biased auntie, but he’s the most beautiful baby boy I’ve ever laid eyes on. I think I’ve had more tears of joy this year than I ever have in my entire life, especially this month.
This December has certainly been one to remember. 2011 has brought me so many wonderful things and December is wrapping it up perfectly. December may be the last month of the year, but for some perhaps it’s just the beginning. The beginning of a new journey, the beginning of life, or the beginning of a new you. However December has treated you this year, wrap up one good or positive thing you can take from it and make it a December to remember.
Happy Holidays & Happy December! SLK
