The BIG 30!

Well it was my 30th birthday yesterday and I really had a great day. Ryan and I really enjoyed the weekend - he surprised me with a nice long prenatal massage and it was AWESOME! I really do need to do this more often. For some reason it seems so easy to save these sort of things for "special occasions" but I have decided to turn a new leaf and do them just because. Why not? Hopefully as I move towards motherhood and the business to come I will remember to take time for myself to relax and enjoy "me time".

Last night we celebrated with a fondue dinner to die for! It was so fun getting out and spending a few hours over dinner. I really enjoyed our time together and realized that I am so lucky to be married to my best friend (most of the time -he he)!

So, in moving towards the next 30 years (God willing) I hope to remember some of the following:

1. Prioritize me
2. Prioritize us - always have time for fun with just R and I.
3. Relax more - dishes don't always have to be done after dinner and it's ok to have a messy home if there is something more important going on.
4. Live in the moment - For those of you who really know me - you know that the serenity prayer has been an important prayer in my life. I hope I continue to live by some of these words:
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time, accepting hardship as a pathway to peace. Taking as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that you will make all things right if I surrender to your will. So that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with you forever in the next. Amen".

Would love to hear some of your thoughts - What is important for you to remember???
