Winter is birthday season in this house. My youngest turned four on January 10th and my eldest will be ten on February 8th. While I don’t make resolutions, I do lean towards the reflective any time one of my kids celebrates another year around the sun. That their birthdays coincide with a new year, only reinforces my desire to turn inwards and think about the last twelve months. The meaning is twofold, they symbolize my children’s own journeys, but also my own (in this case, decade) since I became a mother.
