Here's to you

Well, here's to you 20's.  I learned so much.  When I started this decade I was so different.  I knew more at the beginning than I do now at the end.  It seems to me that wisdom is largely in realizing that you really don't know very much.  I wouldn't trade a single day in my twenties because each one uniquely added to who I have become, but there is only a handful that I would want to relive. 

There are so many things that will mark this decade of my life in my memory my wonderful husband, our courtship and marriage, the birth of our three beautiful girls, my first house of my own to live in, and the list goes on.  This decade is filled with a lot of struggles, but more triumphs; alot of wrong choices, but more grace; a lot of stepping out on my own, but more of Him carrying me; a lot of fear, but more of His comfort; a lot of doubt, but more of His promises. 

There is so much in these beautiful years that I am grateful for, yet I am more excited for the ones ahead.  I am a different woman now compared to 10 years ago.  I am looking forward to all that He has in store for me.  So here I am 30's!
