i'm loving all the "best 9" insta snaps
being shared across my news feed,
today on this last day of 2018.
for the last few years
one of my favorite end of year activities
has been to create
a "flip-a-gram"
musical montage
of our year.
well apparently flip-a-gram
is no longer a thing...
and the "best 9" algorithm
just doesn't seem to capture all...
the adventures,
the firsts,
the lasts,
the growth...
the hustle,
the teamwork,
the joy,
the milestones...
the wins,
the losses,
the spirit,
the love...
the vacations,
the rest,
the traditions,
the celebrations...
the time at home,
away,
down the street,
and in our backyard...
the anticipation,
the decisions,
the departures,
the endings...
the beginnings,
the new,
the dreams,
the hopes...
the first days,
the new season,
the stepping up,
the back at it,
the making it happen...
the homework,
the costumes,
the uniforms,
the laughter...
the day to day,
the team,
the resources,
the sweat...
the love,
the gratitude,
the memories,
and the moments.
and while these tiles
tell just part of the story...
as they don't show any glimpse of the
countless memories and shared moments
with the friends and family,
teammates and neighbors,
brothers and sisters,
community and strangers
who are so often beside us...
it sure does make me incredibly grateful
for the year that it was,
and the one that is to come.
happy new year
dear ones!
