First, I'm so sorry I'm barely reading up on your thread. I've kept myself away from the forum as well and each time I come back I feel rather lost with all the new names. It was such a nice surprise to see your name on the first page ;-)

I'm sending you many hugs to you and and your beautiful children, to your family. I hope you ring in the new year running up a flight of stairs with a luggage, eating grapes, lentils in your pocket, opening and closing the door, whatever your family does to bring you a better 2014.

I think the plus to BD being at the end of the year is you can easily compare each year. I look back at Dec 2011 and remember thinking I had DB'ed my heart out. Little did I know...

I can't wait for you to get back and I hope we can meet up soon.

XOXO
