Reflections.

I was always very good at starting things. There's something about a 'Fresh' start. Makes you so motivated to get up and do things. Well, me anyway. But finishing them is a whole different story.

I used to have big aspirations. Big dreams. Be a singer. Be Famous. Successful career.
List goes on and on.

Now my dreams are still big, but boy have they changed. And all of them tie into the first one.

To be a loving mother, and wife tops the list. I dont want to be famous, I just want and need my kids and husband to know me.

To stay fit, healthy and in shape. To enjoy my life, to keep up with the kids, the dog and the husband. Yes, the dog rates a mention because when I take him for a walk I can't up when he decides to run off (which he does alot). Besides it never hurts to look good.

To keep a snapshot and record of life as I know it. Yes this is where this blog comes into play, when I have time to update it. I want to be able to be an awesome photographer so that when Jayden turns 22 and says "remember when we were growing up and I used to bathe in a pail" and I can actually pull that cute photograph of Jayden being naked and actually bathing in his pail to embarrass remind him. I have billions of cards, wedding invitations and things that need organising, and have started putting them into scrapbooks (well, will start after exams in December that is!!).

To always stay thankful and grateful to God, and be grounded in Him. I have so much to thank God for - family, friends, a wonderful life on this earth and there is nothing I can ever do to deserve this save His Grace.

So anyway, Jayden is now 20 months old and is on his way to becoming a toddler. How quickly do they grow up?!!!! Its the first day of Spring, beautiful weather and a new dogpark has just opened up near our place which we have been taking Charlie to. Will blog more about this and hopefully post photos up too. In the meantime its back to hitting the books as they call it.
