Happy New Year, Sweethearts!

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

and never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

and auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,

for auld lang syne,

we'll take a cup of kindness yet, 

for auld lang syne.

And surely you'll buy your pint cup!
and surely I'll buy mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet, 
for auld lang syne.

We two have run about the slopes, 

and picked the daisies fine;

But we've wandered many a weary foot,

since auld lang syne.

We two have paddled in the stream,

 from morning sun till dine;

But seas between us broad have roared

since auld lang syne.

And there's a hand my trusty friend!

And give us a hand o' thine!

And we'll take a right good-will draught,

for auld lang syne. 

For auld lang syne, my dear,

for auld lang syne,

we'll take a cup of kindness yet,

for auld lang syne. 

New Year's smooch Tatum style.

Dear C&F friends/enthusiasts/supporters/tolerators/lovers, 

Thank you for sharing 2012 with me.  I have this feeling that 2013 is going to show itself to be a pretty ridiculously wonderful year.  I hope you find yourselves surprised and then surprised again over how much goodness it contains.  I don't make New Year's resolutions really, but I resolve that this year I will grow in love, grow in kindness, grow in grace, grow in authenticity, grow in gutsy courage, grow in generosity, grow in faith, and grow more and more into the human being I am created to be.  

Happy 2013! 

A whole lot of love from me to you!
