Thoughts on 30

Definition: 30(thirty) is the natural number following 29 and preceding 31.

Thoughts on 30: I am pleasantly surprised to say I LOVE 30! When I turned 29 I was depressed at the thought of being in my last year of the 20's. But the closer 30 got the better it looked. I couldn't help but think of all the amazing things I have to look forward to in my 30's!

Clint and I will celebrate 10 years of marriage!! (w/ a trip to Mexico I will add. Thanks Dad)

Our first child will not only graduate high school but also enter her 20's. (that's a shocker)

We will have 2 teenage girls and a teenage boy before my 30's are up!!! (help us Lord)

2 kids driving

I will likely get to ditch the mini van. (though I do love it)

Another trip to Disneyland

I will change my LAST DIAPER!!!! (at least of my own children =/)

I am sure their are so many more amazing things to come that I haven't even thought of but the thing I look forward to the most is something a dear friend once said. She said that her relationship w/ Christ got better then ever in her 30's. More steady, consistent, deeper and richer. I only pray I will be able to say the same thing a few years form now.
