Well...I also decided I needed a page for my random musings about the simple things. Believe me, they are many.

Dreams. We've all got 'em. Whether they be idealistic or realistic, everyone has dreams and desires for the future. Maybe you want to be a singer or a missionary or an athlete or a politician, but whatever your personal dream, we all want to be something. Well I thought about my "dreams", and I know what my dream college would be, what my dream job would be, and what my dream life would look like. But when I got to asking myself what my heart really truly yearns for in the future, I could only think of one thing. My dream for the future is to be a mother. Yes, I know, there are steps I must take to get there, and I will be sure I take them in the correct order. But the simple joy of a child. I can't help but tear up when I see a mother smiling into the face of her giggling baby, and the joy that comes from the first time she hears him say her name. Such a simple joy, but if you talk to any mother she will tell you that she loves being a mother more then anything else. I even feel an overwhelming happiness when I'm with someone else's child, so I can't wait to experience that same feeling multiplied by a million when I have a baby of my own...but for now, I anxiously await the next step that God has in His master plan for my life :)
