Play Hard, Sleep Hard

2 Birthdays and A New Year's Resolution

Soooo, obviously it's been quite some time since I did any updating or posting on this here blog. Time runs away from me and so does a one year old, which in essence are the poor excuses I have for staying away so long.
December brought two glorious events - Zachary's first birthday and Jesus' birthday!
Both were celebrated with much joy, reflection and gratitude. We got to spend time with friends and family for both occasions and closed another year with the knowledge that God is good ALL THE TIME.
Now, I usually don't partake in resolutions as that seems to be a recipe for disaster, but my one resolution for 2009 is to keep this up to date more often. Going back to work and intensely missing Zach for the few hours I am away from him each day gave me fresh perspective on how hard it is to love him and be away from him full time. So for all those who love Zach, particularly his long-distance grandparents, I resolve to give you more Zachary on a weekly basis.

Here are a few pictures from Zach's birthday and from Christmas.
