Day 18-Plans/dreams/goals you have

So of my 320 evaluations for my 320 students (yes i have to write one individually for each child) i have 60 left, and i must take a break before i throw my computer across the room. so here is my break... a new blog! :) kendra, one of my very best friends from BYU, said to get back on it when i saw her on Christmas, so here we go. baby is due in 15 days (weird) so i need to hurry and finish this or it will never happen!

so day 18... plans, dreams, and goals... wow have those changed over the years.

...so when i was like 5 i wanted to be a cheerleader/nurse

...when i was 17 i wanted to go to BYU, get married my freshman year, pop out lots of babies, and live in utah forever

...when that didn't happen i didn't know what to do with my life, so i went on a mission, decided to major in Spanish, become a teacher, and travel

...i majored in Spanish, lived in Spain for two months, traveled to portugal and italy, and then became a teacher... finally something accomplished! :)

...i was in the process of finding new plans and dreams and deciding what to do with my life...

...like continue to travel, go back to school, get a PHD and become a famous Spanish linguist

...another was to move back to the island and take over dad's boat business so i could be a beach bum

...write a book

...marry for money :)

...and life has a way of getting in the way of all your plans... i met JJ, got married pretty fast, got pregnant pretty fast

...so my hopes and dreams changed again... i still have them, but those things are definitely on the back burner for now. my biggest dream now is to somehow make enough money to be a stay at home mom and raise a few kids... teach those kids how to be productive human beings... to have real conversations (instead of texting or facebooking all the time like most kids these days)... to be talented, musical, athletic, intelligent

... oh... and i totally still want to be a beach bum :)

  2. Though life might not have turned out exactly how we planned...the Lords plan sure looks great when you are lying in bed with your new angel.
