2011 has been good to us. We needed it. We are hitting our stride, and we are solid amidst chaos.
This year I have used technology to help me better manage my life. My goal has been to free up mental resources so that I can sleep better, work better, and be a better parent. Pepperplate and Mint have helped me on the home front, and Evernote and Wunderlist are a godsend both personally and professionally. Pandora is keeping us rockin' these days (thank you, VVF!), and I suspect that Pinterest will have a place in 2012.
This year we graduated from early intervention. I have finally gotten to a place where I have stopped worrying about possible delays and meeting milestones. That mindset shift has freed up the most mental resources of all.
This year I started regularly meeting up with a group of other professional twin moms who work in my area. They have been a wonderful source of support, advice, and laughter. I have a handful of other mom friends that I meet for dinner and playdates every month or so. I treasure them and their children like family.
The best night of this year was spent celebrating the marriage of two of our best friends, Keith and Rachel. I hold those memories of our dearest friends and love and laughter close to my heart.

Best of all, Zoe and Silas are laughing, talking, running, reasoning, learning, dancing, eating, growing, and thriving.
Happy New Year!
