Blog Journal ~ Day 3

What am I most proud of?
Now that's a loaded question! Im like everyone else and of course my kids come to mind first. And Im sure for all the reasons any other mother would put.
So Im gonna move on to something more personal. Im going to choose, that I feel like I have finally figured it out. I didnt know from the age of 5 what I wanted to be when I grew up. I didnt finish college. I chose to move when I was 21 to a town 3 hours away where the only person I knew was my husband and start from scratch. In the 8 years that I have been here I have gained more friends than I have ever had before. I can literally count on 2 hands all the friends that I know I could call any time of the day for any reason. I have finally found an amazing church that has transformed my life. I have started my own business... Fall Into Grace, with many more doors opening up as we speak. And I have finally stopped believing that I needed a college degree to feel fulfilled in life. My 10 year high school reunion is in a few months and I am proud to walk in there the person that I am..un-intimidated by the success of some fellow graduates....and If you knew me before, you would completely understand how huge this is for me. Shy little girl from small town USA now finally having the confidence to own this little thing called L.I.F.E. ;)

  2. Thank you! Its something Ive struggled with for a long time. Its hard attending your friends' college graduations. (I am completely proud of them!) But I just couldnt figure it out for the longest. I finally figured out it just wasnt for me. Now I did go back and get my Real Estate Certificate on top of two years of basics, which in the state of Texas requires almost twice as many hours as most other states... but I never persued it. ;) So I guess Im proud of that too... lol
