It was a very good year...

2015 was a very good year. We used the word "fratricide" a lot less. We went on many adventures. We made decisions about our family and our house. Alice entered school and Isaac a swanky daycare. We bought a cargo bike. We traveled (of course). We laughed. We cried. We were silly and in times serious. I drank beer and Laura ate chocolate, and vice versa. The kids grew a bit and we were happy to meet the new versions of the people that we love so much, while being a bit sad about losing the versions that they were. It's cliché, but they grow up so damn fast - and Alice is barely four!

Professionally I feel I'm not the passionate person I was 10 years ago. As a person I feel I'm more relaxed and able to give people more slack for mistakes because honestly who knows what shit is going down in someone else's life.

I feel on average more tired than before, but I think that's just because Isaac isn't as good a sleeper as his sister naturally has been. But he's getting better. It's getting better.

As a couple I'm feeling that we're getting better at being a couple with kids. But like everything else, it's a work in progress. I don't ever want to get to a point of not trying, of thinking "meh, it's good enough".

Our social life... well, let's just say that it's neglected but one day we'll get back to working on it.

It's been a very good year. But I'm pretty excited about 2016. :-D
