I only need to revisit the entries in this blog to remind me of what an amazing year 2013 has been. To be honest, I do need reminding because this has been a long year, trust me. Last Christmas seems like a long time ago, celebrating Christmas in Spain and New Year’s Eve with friends in Fleet. And not drinking. I remember how tough I found it not being able to drink alcohol. I eventually got used to it, but it was difficult!
The pregnancy was easy at the beginning, and then the complications arrived. The shadow of preeclampsia doomed over me for months and eventually the consultant gave us a date for the c-section. Suddenly nothing mattered any more because we were getting ready for the new chapter in our lives. And what a chapter it’s been.
The twins are awesome, they do something new every day that manages to surprise me, and I love them to pieces. But looking after them all day long is also very tiring. Some days I am so exhausted after dinner that I can’t even concentrate to watch a bit of telly. However, I am so in love with them that all is forgiven. I just need them to look at me to melt…
I don’t have any real new year’s resolution this time, my only wish for 2014 is to be more patient with them, to take them to more places and to watch every single minute of their development. That’s more than enough.
Happy new year!
