UPDATE: NEW YEAR. 2015.

Sometimes we go on dates and steal penguins. 

My life has been a whirlwind. It continues to be a mass of perfect chaos. Yet, I have no room to complain. My sweet Max is growing like a weed, my MD just defended his thesis, and I am in the process of registering for my last semester of school. I already broke my new year's resolution to STOP procrastinating. I decided to put that off until after school is done. Que sera, sera...

Xander and Max adore each other. They play and fight all day long. We spent a majority of the
holidays hanging out with these two kiddos. It warmed my heart to see the love they have for each other.

MD's birthday was yesterday. He is one year older, and wiser too. He continues to surprise me every, single day. How is it that a small town girl (ahem, me) could meet and like a city boy? God's hand is in this for sure. I really want to share how amazingly compassionate and kind this man really is but I'm afraid he won't like this post.

I can rave that he is genuinely and inherently good. Also, he's a BRAIN. This guy can do a lot of math in his head and for that I am grateful. I haven't had to do percentages in over a year and for that, I am also grateful.

I hope y'all had a great new year. I'm hoping to develop good, clean habits that will cleanse my soul of any darkness. I am searching for light, in all things.
