Today is my 29th Birthday! It's been a really nice day. This morning we had a MOPS meeting and my friend made a cake for me. This afternoon Nate and I had cake with the boys and opened my gifts. This evening Nate took me to a nice Italian restaurant in town we hadn't tried yet. It was a great restaurant and it was so nice to have dinner sans kids!I've been reflecting alot about turning 29. I think this year I'm going to look back on what has happened in the past decade. When I turn 30 I'll set out my goals for the next decade. :)
What's been accomplished:
-graduated college
-graduated with my MSW
-been married to the most wonderful man for 6 years
-had two miscarriages
-struggled with infertility
-had two amazing kids
-became licensed foster parents
-lived in 4 states
-moved 6 times
-traveled to Eastern Europe, St. Maarten, and Canada. Does Canada count as foreign travel?:)
-been involved in 4 churches
-became a MOPS coordinator
That is all the highlights I can think of. While looking over this list I am struck by how blessed my life is. God has guided me through the high and low points. He is so faithful, even when I am not. My life has been blessed by all of you as well. Thank you!
By the way, I included the last picture of Isaac because he looked so cute.:)
