I know when I blog that there are basically two people reading this, Kim and Jeff. I appreciate you both reading this and making comments. I think I have hit a point in my life where I realized that I have done and seen alot, even if it doesn't seem like it. There are a few things I wish I would have done. I am not calling them regrets, just things that I would have been interested to see happen and what would have resulted.
These are in random order...(like everything else in my life)
Serve a Mission- I would have loved to learn a new language and be a missionary. I couldn't afford it and I knew my parents would really not like it.
Gone to College- All through high school I knew I wasn't going to college. I just accepted that I wasn't. My parents never encouraged it and I knew really thought about it. I think I can call myself smart, and I would have liked to see how far I could have gotten. I think I would have gone for a journalism or something with writting...maybe even politcal science.
Had another baby after Nicholas- I am wondering if I am going to have the chance to have another baby. Nicholas will be 4 in August and I am thinking that the age gap maybe too much. I would love for him to be a big brother and Robert is the best dad. Selfishly I would just like to have a baby girl so I can go pink crazy. Every month I cry when I realize that I am not pregnant. I think that is a sign that I would like to have another one.
Stayed in Arkansas- When I left, I was the assistant manager of a Victora's Secret, and by now I would be somewhere in management for Limited brands. I enjoyed living in the south. I miss the girls that I knew and the atmosphere down there. People were more polite, too.
These are just a few things I ponder........

Yes, I have comments to make. First of all, Kim and I are NOT the only ones who read this blog. FYI, my numerous friends stop in and read it all the time...they even ask me about you! Second, you can still go on a mission. Sure you may be 65 and get sent to Fresno, but it's a mission! And lastly, you're still young and can go to school. Maybe you should take a class this fall at Bellevue. Just a thought.
Yeah I was gonna say that you can still go to school. There's nothing wrong with BCC (if it's still called that?) that is where I have my AA from. :) Even just taking a class or two at a time would be good. I can't wait until my babies are a little older and I can take some classes somewhere.
As for having more babies, sometimes I envy your one! I love my kids, I really do, but sometimes it gets really old planning around naps, making sure I have diapers, praying that no one needs to go potty when I have the kids by myself.
And like Jeff said, you can still serve a mission. I'm glad I never did because I would have gotten sent somewhere where I wouldn't eat anything...although I would have come back so thin! :) When Ben and I are older we'll go on one together. Senior missions are way better I would think. You get to choose your companion, there aren't as many rules, etc. At least when my grandparents went they had a lot of freedom.
Amy we all have regrets. I often regret leaving BYU, I should have stayed and gotten my degree (cause honestly sometimes I'm embarassed I only have an associates) but then I never would have met Ben.
Any maybe if you would return my calls sometimes I wouldn't leave novels in your comments section!
I have some more book recommendations. I have liked everything I've read by Sophie Kinsella. She wrote the Shopaholic books and I just read another one. I didn't enjoy her book that she wrote under her real name...Gate Crasher I think is what it's called, but I've liked the others.
