30 Day Challenge: Day 2


Where I Want to Be In 10 Years
----------------------------------------------------------------
In ten years, I hope to be thinking of more dreams and watching them come true! It is hard to think that in 10 years, it will be 2021! I don't know if my mind will accept that year just yet....but I will try.

In ten years, I hope Hubby and I are surrounded by at least 2-3 children and living in our dream home. We love our home now but we would like to have a bigger home later in life, if possible. One of my dreams is to be a stay at home mom/homemaker even though right now it doesn't look like it is financially possible. I will keep praying and wishing for it and hopefully my dream coincides with God's plan for me.

I would love to have found a home church for us and our children. A church where we feel truly accepted and a true part of the community in which our family can build a strong relationship with God. We thought we had that church a year or so ago but alas, I was a little too put off by the "high school cliche" feel to it. They were very warm and accepting on Sunday morning at church but I just didn't get the same vibe when we were together in smaller groups.

I hope that Hubby will find a workplace he truly loves and feels like his contributions are respected and honored. Both Hubby and I work at the same office now and the work environment is very nice and we both are earning a good living but I just get the feeling that Hubby feels like something is missing. Maybe that "missing" piece will fit at this office but we will have to keep faithful and true until we know for certain.

I would love to say that we will be financially set and that we can afford to take our kids on Disney trips at least once or twice but those things aren't the important things. I want our children to know they are loved above all else, that work always comes second to them and their well-being. I want to encourage them and my Hubby to be the best they can, to support them no matter what and to pray for the best that God has in store for them. But if I do have to be a little materialistic, I would love to take Hubby overseas to experience these treasures in person....

What great dreams for 10 years from now! Plus your photos are FANTASTIC! I hope someday John and I are able to travel to places like that too but ya never know what God has planned. *sigh* Wouldn't it just be so much easier if he would just tell us what's going to happen 10 years from now? :)

Love,
