Dreams - Page Number Two

Here is my second page for the Dreams Challenge. Journaling reads:When I was growing up I always said I wanted to be a Mommy. I am sure a lot of little girls say that. Well I said the same thing in high school. I wanted to just grow up and be a wife and mom. I married when I was 21 and was so excited to be a wife. I loved cleaning my house, doing laundry, cooking. Finally when I was 25 I became a Mommy and I was complete. I then had another baby 20 months later. I cherished every moment of being a Mommy, we read together, played together, colored together. I loved birthday parties, Christmas and just being together. My marriage ended after 11 years but I will always be a Mom and I loved raising my boys. There was peace and laughter in our home. We weren’t always perfect but we were honest, kind, and loyal to each other. I loved children and opened a daycare in my home and was there to raise my boys every day. That job led to my current job of an Asst. Director of a church preschool and I love each day. My boys are now young men and I still love being with them, I still love Christmas (I don’t know who is more excited…me or them), and birthdays. They kiss and hug me in public and never hang up without telling me they love me. So if I think about what my hopes and dreams were and what they are…I have fulfilled them and then some. I fell that my life has turned out exactly like I would have wanted it. Oh maybe I would have liked to have had more money and not live so tight but as my then 13 year old son said to me one day, “Mom we don’t always have what we want…but we always have what we need.” I am happy, I am satisfied, I am content.
