Ten Years From Now
After asking others what they wanted to know about me, one of my friends gave me the idea to make a post explaining where I would like to see my family in ten years. Although, I am very satisfied with the way my life it right now, I loved it. I haven't really given much thought into what I want 10 years from now, and I saw this as the perfect opportunity to do so. Listed below are the plans I have for my family in ten years.
This is where I am thinking we will be. Sound crazy enough? We will be wherever life takes us. In all honesty, I have no clue where due to my husband being active duty. If I had to guess I would say somewhere overseas (Germany or Japan, maybe). In his career field there are not very many stateside options, so we are pretty sure we will be going overseas within the next few years. Hopefully, we will get the chance to be stationed somewhere we've always wanted to go, but anywhere as long as we are together will do just fine.
This is what our family looks like now. We have wonderful son that is here with us, and we have a baby girl in heaven. By the time 10 years passes, I planning to have two or three more children. I would love to have a big family. Hopefully, I will be blessed with a few more wonderful pregnancies, and even if, we have also talked about and are considering adoption. No matter what happens, I am so blessed to have the amazing family I have today.
I plan to go back to school to get a degree in social work, and eventually become an adoption agent. I have these plans on hold right now, because I want to focus on being a mother. Continuing to be a stay at home mom until our children are in school is what we've decided is best for our family. When we decide it is time for me to go back, I plan to only take online or week day classes, so I can still spend the majority of my time with my family.
I hope to always make time to do the things I love. I've said this in previous posts, so I think it goes without saying, but I love sewing. I am learning more and more about sewing and different stitching techniques, and the more I learn, the more I love it. I plan to start a business soon, and in 10 years I am hoping my business is doing great. Regardless of how successful I am, I never want give up doing what makes me happy.
This took some time to think about, since I'm not a very big on planning. I'm more "go with the flow," and my husband is always the man with the plan. We look forward to seeing what God has in store for us.
Thanks for reading!
