I had the most wonderful birthday yesterday spending quality time for myself.  My wonderful mother in-law watched my beautiful baby for me giving me the day off.  I had a lot of time to think about the past years up and downs and what I had learned from them.  Last year we made the decision to finally jump in and buy the farm.  We no longer wanted to wait to have our farm and start our dream.  Shortly after finding the farm we ended up buying we found out we were pregnant with our wonderful little girl.  Although my pregnancy had its many challenges and was by no means easy I made a human being.  Let’s just talk about that for a minute I MADE A HUMAN, isn’t that amazing?  I never thought in a million years that being pregnant would be so hard or that being a mother would be so amazing!  Shortly after our baby girl was born we lost my father in-law.  Sam was one of the best men I have ever known!  He was kind and caring and acted like I had always been part of the family from day one.  I will never forget all the things that Sam did for me he was amazing.  All these things added up to make a roller coaster of a year.  What was the biggest thing that I learned?  Your bucket list should never be a bucket list… It should be your To Do List.  life is to short to wait to do the things you dream of.  Don’t dream your life away grab the steering wheel and live it.  What are you waiting for?

P.S. I also learned to knit and it’s amazing, I am a knitting genious!
