Beginnings

Happy New Year 2012!  January 1 is always a time for new beginnings.  Maybe this year more than usual.  In 2012, January 1 is...

A new year.

A new month.

A new week.

I've always loved beginnings.  Fresh starts.  Like...

The first day of school. 

A fresh new box of crayons (which, btw, is still a favorite thing of mine - even though I am no longer a school girl). 

That first night's rest on clean or new sheets. 

New pens. 

New socks - especially comfy, fuzzy ones.

Being the first person to squeeze on a new tube of toothpaste. 

Beginnings - big or small - can be refreshing and exciting.  So.. here's to the beginning of 2012.  And all the fresh, new beginnings it holds in store for us all!

  4. @alphawoman - for me it's books! I love being the first person to open a new book and that feeling as the spine gives way for the first time!
