That's right. The plans. The life plan you have set up for yourself. I had mine. It was the best plan ever. I had everything set up from what I wanted, how I was going to do it, and what order it was going to take place in. But, as I have learned Heavenly Father has a greater plan. He has the over all plan for all of us and then a specific plan for each one. My specific plan didn't line up exactly and it has changed. Changed for the better. I did do a couple things in order. Graduated high school and went on a trip to DC with an amazing friend. Then I found an my amazing husband and moved to Pocatello. (that was not in my plan, but that's the "changed for the better") Yet, I still have a list of things I want to accomplish. My little dream things. Here they are, they're my goals, dreams, wishes, wants.....whatever you want to call 'em. I know we all have them and I believe as long as we are alive, we can still accomplish them. Some are a bigger deal than others...but I want each of them.
Here is one of my dreams. Yes, it is like a lot of people but it is definitely on top of my list. I want to have a family. I love kids so much. I worked for about 3 years with other peoples kids....I definitely want my own now. (not as in...right this second, but I am ready for one now. haha)
My second ambition is to be a cosmetologist. I'm starting school this fall and I am very excited about it! I don't need to be a super famous, yes I do so and so's hair. Mine is to have my very own salon.
Next up is a home. Not a house where Nic and I live day to day but a home. I want it to have nice landscaping. I want to have neighbors but I don't want to touch their house. And I want to design it so I don't hate it.
Next up is what this picture depicts. I want to make a cookbook. Not only do I want to have recipes from those I love....but I want to make up my own. Yes, I want to be able to cook well enough that I don't use measuring spoons like Rachel Ray and I want to have them memorized like Nic has his own No Bake cookies recipe memorized.
I want to be a photographer. Hand down. I want them to look super nice. I want to help people capture a moment in time that they would otherwise forget. I want to catch that smile that they don't realize they do.....so they can laugh about it later.
And this is my number one. All of the above I definitely want on the side of my life....but this is the dream I have had for the longest time. Of course kids fall into this picture....but all the other dreams I have obtained growing up. I didn't always know I wanted to go to cosmetology school at ISU.....or that I wanted to photograph someones dreams. Being a mom is what it's all about. I'm grateful for the many woman in my life, especially my mom and grandma fielding. This is my biggest dream and I'm so excited about it.
