back in january i wrote a list of 25 things that i wanted to accomplish this year. some were silly, others nearly impossible, and some were, well… just dreams. since we are nearly 5 months into my 25th year, an update seemed appropriate. if you haven’t read my 25 things yet, please catch yourself up!
ok. here way go. starting with…
#23- give hand written notes to my friends regularly. i am going to give this a pretty confident check. i’ve written quite a few cards to friends with bible verses, encouragement, or just telling them why i love them. i have great friends, this was easy.
#22- read 25 books. ok, i’m a bit of a slacker. but i think i am at 6. fail. i better up my game a bit.
#21- vaca to nashville & memphis to see my sis. almost a check on this one! planning a trip for may if flights cooperate.
#19- bring my dad to church with me. well, this one was god’s doing BUT dad has come to church nearly every sunday for the past 2 months. win!
#12- learn a different language.maybe italian. i am on my way with this one! i have all the tools i need and a friend that speaks italian fluently. oh yes! and my italian children’s books arrive soon!
#10- less of me. more of jesus. ok, this is a hard one to judge but i know i have grown closer to jesus in the past 4 months. definitely have made my life more about him.
#7- take a photo with my mom, dad, & sister…all smiling. well. i took one with my mom, dad, and me…all smiling? so i’ll give myself half credit on that one.
#3- fall crazy in love. nothing confirmed on this one yet but i have pretty good feeling about this one getting a check.
ok. so i’ve touched on 8 of the 25. not too bad but i better start figuring out some of the ones that take a little more effort. i think i’ll start with training for my half marathon again, i am determined to run some sort of race before the holidays! 25 has been a really great year so far, i can’t wait to see how it ends!
Do you think you can check off #3 and #14?
I’m pretty sure #18 can be checked off, too.
And, if it’s not too much to ask, could you reconsider #2?
TRW
3 and 14 are definitely checked off… and #2… how about changing it to, “live anywhere with you.”
