#reverb12 Day 1. How am I starting?

It feels very odd to be contemplating new beginnings right now...lately my mind has been firmly planted in the either the past or the future as I contemplate the year that was & the path imagined that keeps changing, as it is wont to do.

We have spent this last week holidaying in an old resort town home of ours & it has been a very timely & surreal experience recalling our lives here. This is where we fell in love, where we got married, where we forged some amazing friendships & where many of the dreams for our life together began. Returning here with B to play in the parks we'd previously ignored & meet the bubbas born in our absence has been a magical occasion indeed.

So...how am I starting?

With a fresh perspective on where we are & how far we've come
With reinvigorated friendships & new memories to treasure
With a little boy who is now saying 'car'
With a beautiful & wonderfully clever new Doctor for a husband (so proud!)
With a heavy heart & an empty space for the baby we were longing to meet
With the physical traces of pain & loss
With a Christmas shopping list as long as the line up for Santa photos
With a creative thirst
With a full social calendar
With the smell of sunscreen...
