Hi Girlfriends –
Oh boy has it been cold in NYC this winter. Don’t get me wrong, I love in the northeast and expect it to get cold but this winter has been just brutal. I find myself reminiscing about my recent vacation to the Dominican Republic with my son, Daniel—what we wouldn’t give for the sun and sand right now!
Every year, Daniel and I both look forward to the end of December when Daniel is off from school and we both get much needed down time. Each year we visit the Dominican Republic— our favorite vacation spot. It is truly such a joy spending relaxing, quality time together. As always, Daniel had the most amazing time! There were so many kids Daniel’s age and he really enjoyed making lots of new friends. It was perfect because it gave me the time to catch up on a lot of reading and relaxation. We had such a wonderful vacation…oh how I wish I was back in the warm weather!
As I write this blog I am reminded of how very lucky I am to have Daniel in my life. He was the best gift I could ever receive. Personally, despite all I’ve accomplished in my life, Daniel keeps me centered and balanced. For me, being a Mom is the truly a gift I will forever be grateful for.
As I listen to the snow and ice melt outside I’m looking back at photos from our vacation. I hope you enjoy them as much as I am!
