This reminds me of that line in Rent, “How do you measure a year? Well, for me, a year is measured in cups of coffee and miles...

Hi there! My apologies for the long delay since my last post. I can't believe that the last time I wrote something was way before the holiday season even began.
Were you naughty or nice this year? Did Santa bring you everything your heart desired? How was your New Year? Did you make any resolutions? I feel like there is so much to catch up on, so I will tell you what I did:
Some of my all time favorite manny memories revolve around being with the kids I take care of during the holidays. It is a magical time when the kids wait with anticipation for Christmas morning. It is also a magical time...
