2008

Time just seems to go faster and faster...

2008, Wow, I never imagined 10 years ago when I graduated from high school that I would be where I am today. Traveling the world was at the top of my list and wherever that led me I was willing to go.

All the things I have been blessed with over the years simply amazes me. Its better than I imagined even when I think of all the not-so-great times!

10 years, four years serving our country, a 7 year old beautiful, smart, fun daughter, salvation, a college degree...I find myself wondering what else I could really want that would mean more to me.

2008 looks like it will be a year of simplifying. I wonder whats truly important to me...
- stuff or people?
- another degree or time with Leah?
- a clean house or fun memories?
- striving for a title at work or striving for the Mom-of-the-Year award?
- heaven or Harvard?

The bummer is I feel like I've missed out on a lot of things that I didn't realize I was missing out on. Kinda like Tim McGraw's song...My Next 30 Years.

So here's to my next 27 years...

I wish you blessings this year along with a Christlike perspective of what is really important because this life is just a blink of an eye.

Much Love -

Niki
