In 2010.....

We had a long year. It was amazing in some parts and gut-wrenchingly hard at others. I'm proud to say that I survived this year without a mental breakdown!  I'm ringing in the new year with my son and husband. I couldn't ask for anything more.

Here's to an amazing(deployment free) 2011!
