Come over and I'll teach you how to sew and make homemade bread. I have 2 sewing machines now! I'm sure you would be really good at the bread, since you're such an amazing baker.
Love this post! Happy birthday to you!
I'm totally vain, but I was super excited to see my name in your 20's list :) I love these kinds of things. I write a sort of recap each birthday in my journal--a list of the things (good and bad) that happened the year before and the things I'd like to work on and see happen in the year to come.
Happy Birthday!! And good luck with your goals.
Good idea...You did accomplish much in your 20's. Grandpa and I both noticed the "have more children" entry. Fun to think about!
