Another year older; another year wiser…
Hoping this finds you and yours healthy, happy, cozy, and warm! Hoping that 2013 brought you love, friendship, and lots of laughter!
My resolution, was to conquer my fear of flying. It had been nearly 35 years since I had flown. Success!! (with Rosary and prayer) The girls and I flew to NYC to see “Newsies”; Ralph and I flew to Playa de Carmen to vacation with Michael, Erin, Megan, and Nathan. Ralph and I flew to Denver to celebrate a friend’s son’s wedding and tour Colorado. While there, I visited with a high school friend whom I hadn’t seen in about 19 years. Liz guided us through Boulder. All three trips were phenomenal…great sites…great company!
All three children moved into new homes this year (I say that there is only one thing next…weddings…new homes with 4 bedrooms…???). Mallory and Eric moved to Coraopolis, Michael and Erin settledin Upper St. Clair, and Megan and Nathan chose Bridgeville. We are blessed to have them, each,within 45 minutes! The true blessing is that they are within 25 minutes of one another.
We, definitely, enjoyed our new pool area this summer! It was great to never leave home to vacation! Ralph hasn’t retired. His health is good…expected aches and pains…it’s been 5 years. I work, one night a week, in a children’s boutique, called Principessa, (just to be around little clothingJ) along with teaching at the middle school. My parents are still in good health.
We consider ourselves blessed in every way.
May 2014 bring you all that makes you happiest along with
strength and courage when life takes a turn.
At night, may you rest with peace of mind!
