There is no time to relax here once Christmas is over. It feels like we run full speed into the New Year, back to school and then straight into Birthday season. My Birthday was on Tuesday and then my little one (who really isn't that little any more) turns 13 tomorrow.
This year, I was anxious about how I would feel...having lost first my Mother and then my Grandmother last year, I knew I would feel different but wasn't really sure what that would mean. As it turns out I got all my crying out of the way the day before and ended up having maybe my best Birthday ever. Even more evidence that worrying about things before they happen is just a waste of time and energy...
The beautiful lady above (from talented Erin) was a gift from my Husband and her peaceful and serene expression is one I hope to be able to be able echo this year...I hadn't really meant to do the "word" thing this year but I think maybe if I was to join in this is the one I would choose

calm, peaceful, and untroubled; tranquil.
How about you? Do you get a chance to slow down or is 2015 already running away with you?
