Twenty things I learned (and re-learned) in 2012

Star Wars (even episodes I,II, and III) are still awesome to a four-year-old.

Sometimes planning is futile. Sometimes... babies just need come in their own time.

Disney can and will heal all wounds.

I am a worse mom than I think I am.

A good night's sleep can do wonders for your health.

Patience really and truly is a virtue... One I was not born with but one I am trying to learn.

My life is seriously, pretty great.

If I go too long without some kind of creative outlet, I start to get blue and funky.

Kindness and being polite can make all the difference.

Big boobs suck.

Dressing up a bit will make a gal feel better about almost anything (even for a two-year-old).

My female friendships are some of the most valued friendships that I have.

I don't read nearly as much as I should (or want to).

My two biggest vices are: Diet Coke and T.V. And I don't plan on cutting either one anytime in the near or distant future.

Little voices saying, "I love you" is heaven on Earth.

I spend too much time and money on "stuff" and not enough on "experiences".

I am a better mom than I think I am.

Things don't always happen for a reason.

Family really is everything.

My husband is absolute best. There. I said it.

    "My two biggest vices are: Diet Coke and T.V. And I don't plan on cutting either one anytime in the near or distant future."

    I don't read enough because I would rather watch TV and I have no plans to change that this year.

    Thanks for making me feel better about that.

    Great Post and it reminds me why we are friends.
