I started this blog a little less than a year ago, with great intentions. Yet the last entry is Easter of 2007. I will try again. I am resolute to do several things this year-- read more fiction, hear more music, take more time for myself, weed out all the items and worries in my closets and my head that add nothing to my life.
I am currently insprired by this recent Anna Quindlen quote I came across: "Treasure the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less."
Kiernan Stevens Hardin will be 6 months old on February 5th, Mardi Gras day. We will be hard at work this weekend on his "Baby's First Gras" sign, just like the one we made for Seamus. Hard to believe he has been in our lives 1/2 a year already. He is the sweetest, most easy-going little guy in the world, and is deeply loved by his big brother, Seamus, who just turned 2. They are my inspiration and reason for getting up every day. Harry seems happy with his new job, and I am in a groove at work. All is well and peaceful for the Hardins in NOLA these days.
Here's to attempting to keep resolutions, both the lofty ambitious ones and the small daily accomplishments that keep your head above water...
