I'm sad this challenge is coming to an end. However, it is a great feeling to know that there are other people out there in the world that love some of the same things I love, feel as insecure as I do, live in places I would really like to visit....and so on :] It's been a fantastic opportunity! Thanks Toni & everyone else who took a minute or two to peek into my blog...i've enjoyed peeking into yours :D
So, it's all about the 'bucket list'...things I want to do and/or accomplish in my life. Wow, so many...however, there are a choice few that stick out for me:
* build one more home. one with a huge family room for my grandchildren to all come and have a sleep over in! (got some years before i'm a grandma...i hope!)
* buy a ranch in montana or nebraska. i want my hub's to have a place of his very own to run his horses and hunt for whitetail.
* watch my oldest, Caitlyn, live seizure free! there's got to be a way! also, see her marry a man who loves her more than anyone else on the whole earth! I want to see her raise a family and be a great mother :]
* listen to my youngest, Sadie, play the piano....as much as possible. Help her win the battle with her anxiety issues. Marry a cowboy and live in humble peace with her family and enjoy motherhood.
* i don't ever want my puppy (of 10 years) to die. so, i want to invent a medication that will allow a dog to live as long as it's owner ;] (ok, that one is far beyond realistic!)
* visit Japan, Ireland, Scotland. while i'm at it i would like to walk where Christ walked, see what i read about in the scriptures...so cool!
* help as many children as i can learn in confidence and happiness and tell them how special they are no matter what their challenges are!
* buy 2 very comfortable rocking chairs, place them on my porch...and when we're older, sit with my hub's and watch the wind blow by (just like Tim McGraw sings!).
* say "thank you" as many times as i can!!!
I love a good photo...so I'd like to leave you all with one. My backyard...one day :]
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me." ~Erma Bombeck
