Every year on New Year's Eve, my husband and I think back on that we have done and all the significant events of the year past. This year in particular has been very eventful for our family -- especially the past few weeks, with Paul starting his new job in Boston while the girls and I stayed in the Twin Cities, trying to sell our house and facilitate a move east.
Last night Paul, the girls, and I sat together, munched on popcorn, and watched the movie Up. After the movie was over, Ellie asked if there was a "message" in the movie. Yes we told her. The message is that is isn't a house that makes a home, but the people you share it with. That message is very apropos to our situation now. This year it has been proven to us that family makes wherever you set you bags down a home. And in just over three weeks, we will be together again, making a new home.
Happy 2011 all!
