I was happy to say goodbye to 2012 which now that I read that line, it just sounds ridiculous. Having a defined starting line to something, to life, to changes, is a good thing so with January 1, 2013, I have decided that this will be the year that I let go of a lot of shit. The list of stuff to say goodbye to is long but toward the top of that list are anger and hope. While they seem different, in my life they have been much the same. I still have hope on my list of good things, but this hope that I'm letting go of is different. I have been hoping for certain things for a while now and it just seems unfruitful and exhausting and at the end, disappointing. So I let go of hoping for those things and redefine my hopes for this year.
This morning Henry wanted me to fix a toy that realistically there is no fixing. It is broke ass broke. As I was looking it over and turning it in my hands while closely inspecting, Henry went over to his workbench and brought back his toy screwdriver. He handed it to me and said, "fix it, mom mom." So. Sweet.
This year will bring more disappointments for both Henry and I but we are mostly looking forward to laughing til we pee, baking yummy treats, getting a job/getting into daycare, traveling, and finding love where we can.
Happy new year, indeed.
Oh, and fixing what we can.
