When I came across the
"Before I die I want to..." project I was sucked in...reading every last polaroid of peoples hopes and dreams of things they want to do before they die. It's such a brilliant idea, and one that got me thinking. Before I die, what do I want to do? After having this little tiny baby girl join our family last week, I have found that my priorities have shifted a bit. I have become a mother for the second time, and with it I have enjoyed soaking in every moment of this new life of mine. It's been quite nice having my husband home from work this last week, visitors coming and going, and yesterday was the first day I was left with my two munchkins...and ya know what it went swell! Now, lets be honest every day wont be swell, I know this! But the swell days always out trump the crappy ones, which makes having these babies all worth it! So I thought I'd join in on the polaroid extravaganza and make my own with what I want (above all other things) to do in this life before I die--
Tell me...what do you want to do before you die?
(kind of an overwhelming and daunting thought?!)
someo others from the site that I liked, so I thought I'd share 'em!
Daunting indeed. Like you, my world has shifted with the birth of my first child. I guess more than anything i want this: Before I die I want to be a good example of kindness, caring, and determination.
