Happy New Year

It has been a long year, but it ended incredibly for us and included some very tough times, but also some incredible ones. The births of Scarlett and Sophie, my wedding to Angie and Natalia's lung transplant made 2009 a year I won't forget. At times it really did seem like way too much and literally I lived each day one day at a time. All plans and schedules (except the hospital visitation) went out the window.

To be honest, I really don't know how we all got through it intact. Almost unbelievable. So on the eve of 2009 I am looking forward to a new beginning in 2010. A new year with some nice simple goals like being a good father and getting back to a nice active life (I miss that like crazy). Can't wait to start biking to work and exercising on a daily basis again. I am motivated for it again the way I haven't been in quite some time and I can't wait to take Sophie on her first run this spring. Hope you like the running stroller pumpkin :)

Happy New Year to everyone, and wishing you a great year.

Happy New Year to you and your family. This has been an incredible year and journey and I understand what you mean by getting back to a simpler (and hopefully "normal") life. Here's hoping for a happy, healthy and simpler new year!

Happy New Year to you and your family John. This year has been a rollercoaster of a year for you and your whole family to say the least. It ended up pretty great though now that Natalia has gotten her transplant and is well on the road to recovery. Hopefully she will be home with all of you full time really soon. I wish you and your whole family all the best for 2010. I know it will be a much better one for all of you.
