The New Year Discussion

"Well, if that isn't a face lost in some deep thoughts! What's got you so down, Day?"
"I liked my Old Year..."
"I did, too. We had a whole year of incredibleness, didn't we?"
"Yeah... and that's why I'm sad..... I just didn't want it to end."
"Well, try not to think of it as an ending and try instead to think of it as a fresh new beginning of the awesomeness still ahead for us in 2015!"
"Do you really think it'll be okay, Mama?"
"I know it'll be better than okay, Day."
"How do you know?"
"I know because we're going into this exciting New Year together and because we're always here for each other... and especially because every single day of every single year I love you even more... A whole brand new year of all of these things having even more time to grow, what could be happier New-Yearwise than that??!"
"I guess so... but, we're still going to do all our favourite stuff from last year, right Mama? Like snacks and plays and lots and lots of cuddles....."
"I promise you all the snacks and plays and cuddles you can stand, Day... all the walks, too!"
"Walks? Actually... that's one part of 2014 I wouldn't miiinnd doing away with; we could add in some extra sleepy-time instead... How 'bout we make that our first resolution?! Oh, this is going to be a FANTASTIC New Year, now!"
"Sweet attempt, Day... but walks are staying on the schedule for 2015."
"Man! Even in the New Year mamas are so unfair... grumble, grumble....."
