Our church has been doing a series called "ALIVE" for the past couple of weeks. Basically it is about if you had 30 days to live how would you spend it. Making us realize that you are never guaranteed tomorrow and we should live each day to it's fullest. I'm not even doing it justice trying to explain it, but it has really hit home for me and Matt. It makes us realize the importance of family and not our jobs, how much money you make, or what you have on this earth. (you can't take it with you anyway!) So I have been trying to make a list of the things I would hope I have done.
1) I would hope and pray that I have instilled in my boys as they grow up the importance of faith and knowing that as long as you believe in HIM anything is possible.
2) That my family knows that no matter what their past has been I am thankful for them and wouldn't be the person I am today if not for them.
3) That my husband knows how much I love him and that I think I am the luckiest girl in the world that he picked this CRAZY, loud, aggravating, South Georgia girl to be his wife. He is such a genuine, sweet, caring person and the most wonderful father in the world. Our boys and I are so blessed to have him! I have grown so much since meeting him and strive to be as good of a person as he is.
4) To leave this world with no regrets...trying to be a good friend, mother, wife, and most important a good Christian.
The list will continue I am sure, but for now I will close. In reality I know that it is hard to do and be those things 24/7. I'll just take it one day at a time.....Till next time....
