There comes a point in ones life when you need to resolve to no longer have New Years resolutions. I think having children did that for me. I no longer set myself up for failure - let's face it, when did I ever drink less after a New Years resolution??? Instead now I broach each year with hope - hope that this year my 4 year old will finally talk, hope that my 2 year old will continue to thrive 'normally' and last, but certainly not least, that my 5 month old will be 'normal' too. But what exactly is normal is today's messed up world? Normal is a cycle on my washing machine.....
