Farewell 2010

You came blustering in on the heels of '09 leaving your own stamp on the pages of my life. We saw my eldest son graduate from the Air Force Academy during one of the coldest days ever in recorded history. We traversed across the country once by car and once by air. In the spring we welcomed a grandson to our family. From atop a hill we witnessed a record breaking flood. During the summer and into late autumn we spent many a day mowing. I certainly wondered oft if the grass would ever cease to grow. Even now beneath a blanket of snow, I spy blades of green poking up as if to tease. We danced for hours to Mumford & Sons, Cadillac Sky, & King Charles. We danced until one of us could barely walk. We lived. On your way out could you tell '11 to take it easy on me? I am another year older, after all.
