She gave Zoë and Britt their first ones (we decided Kalixta never had that typical first ponytail because we just left her beautiful curls alone). Yesterday was the day and Ari wasn’t too happy. She cried, but …

I am not good at new year resolutions. In that past that has translated into not really truly making any, knowing that I wouldn’t keep them anyway. This year however is different. I want to make and keep my goals. The problem may be that I have too many goals this year. We will see …
