Where's my pot of gold?

[StrongEnough]

Well, tomorrow is our 11th Anniversary. Never thought I would see it but here we are nonetheless. So, I decided to surprise my H with a night away. I booked a room at a casino that we both like. I have everything packed up and ready to go. Now, after I get ready I just have to find an excuse to get him to leave work a little early so we can get there for check-in time.

As I sit here and reflect back on the past 11 years, I can remember some really good times. I admit, my life hasn't been what I always dreamed of, and I haven't met any of the goals that I wanted for myself (Master's degree, etc.) But that's OK. I have two beautiful children. They are the sweetest things. I love them with all my heart. My M is touch and go, but that's ok too. Everything happens for a reason in this and right now I am going along with the ride.

I have renewed faith in myself as a person and as a mother. I feel good about my accomplishments in life. I have been strong when I needed to be. The biggest thing is I have learned. I have learned that MOST things are possible if you want them enough and if you work hard enough.

Feeling pretty good today.........
