Happy New Year’s!
For the first time in years I can say that and actually mean it. I am not hung over in the least. I went to bed around 9:30 pm last night and for once the baby slept through the night. No one puked; passed out, or slept on my couch… it was all good. Granted, I may not have been awake to watch the ball drop, but sometimes a good night’s sleep is worth the sacrifice.
Isn’t it funny how everything changes once you have kids? Even things like ringing in the New Year. If you had told me 10 years ago that I would have gone to bed at 9:30 pm I would have laughed. If you had told me that I would have done so on New Year’s Eve, I would have cried. Now I’m just thankful for the rest.
I made a few resolutions this year, like eating better, going to bed earlier (believe it, or not), and finally catching up on my “to do” list. Who knows if any of it will actually happen? Who knows if I will even care by February 1st? All I know is that for one New Year’s Eve night I actually got some quality sleep and now I’m recharged and ready for the year to come. So to all you moms, parents, and lucky-you-get-to-sleep-in adults… I wish you a very happy, healthy, and well rested 2009!
Yours in truth, justice & grilled cheese,
Melanie
