I was totally going to go back and write posts about some of the great stuff that happened this year, but we know I am so longwinded that would never in a million years take place, so here is a bit of recap, more for my old forgetful mind to look back at one day, and to assuage my guilt because I used to write so often and i never do and my kids are gonna wonder why all the writing and then all of a sudden sporadic missives from the Hatch during their late elementary years. But mostly because I hate to forget one wonderful second I spent with my family, or any one of those moments where I thought to myself, i have to remember this bit of right now forever.
