Happy New Year 2023!

Usually there is a photoblog with a family picture wishing everyone a Happy new year!

This year, we are not together for new years. It is the first time since getting married, that San is not with me to watch fireworks, or be together at someones place to usher in New year or be at some airport lounge waiting for a red eye flight back to the US! 

We miss her a lot. Okay, I miss her a lot more than the kids! 

Still she had the idea to take a family photo over the phone. So I am taking that photo for the blog!

The little one, who is not so little anymore is working on college applications! How time flies! This blog started before she was born! Now she will be off to college in a few months!

Here is one such Happy New Year picture from this blog from 2009!! 

Given the weather outside, we are just staying put at home and watching TV till midnight! These are older kids now that don't want to venture out in rain. There was a time they would go and play in the snow on Dec 31st. Those times are long gone!

2023 is going to be a big year for this family where the kids will have serious decisions to make!  We hope for the best!

Wishing everyone a wonderful 2023! May you have a  healthy, happy year ahead!
