I've been kind of glum about this year being my last 20 something birthday. I was reminded by a friend, however, that I could "check" a lot of things off that SHE wish that she had already accomplished and hadn't. So here is my "list" of the amazing things that I can be thankful for that happened in my 20's.
-I turned 20 in Australia (right before jet setting to Fiji..I know, those were the days)
-I graduated college and married at 22 (I thought I was so grown up and now I look at the pictures and think BABES!)
-Lived in Orlando and Los Angeles (made some AMAZING friends!!)
-traveled back to Australia
-worked for the most horrible little troll that treated me like crap...learned the most about myself in that sitch.
-saw the Grand Canyon, Seattle, Southern California
-traveled to Europe for the first time!!! Yay Italy and its wonderful food.
-celebrated 7 wedding anniversaries
-one of which was celebrated in Costa Rica (PLEASE take me back)
-invited another little human being into my family unit. Have you met him, yet? No? His name is Eliot.
Have you done this?? Made a list of all the things you've done in the last 10 years? I could add a lot more but that would seem like bragging. This is actually very humbling and I suggest you try it! We are all SO BLESSED!
Your 20's were great, but so will your 30's be, too. It is what you make of it, & you are a person who seeks God & His Ways, so you'll be FINE through all the decades to come! Having said that, just enjoy year 29. Soak it up, & love the ones you're with!
ReplyDeleteYAY! I love this post, especially because Summer and I made it ;)! Such a good idea! Hope to meet the little one soon! <3
