Yesterday was our wedding anniversary and for a change we put aside all work and projects and we sat on the couch, ate takeaway pizza, drank wine and talked. Shock horror, we actually stopped for a moment and spent it on us!
Anyways, while sitting there talking, I looked around the house at the kids paintings hanging up, the toys, the travel photos and the herbs hanging up to dry, I thought about how the boys went running to the door to greet "Daddy" and the penny dropped. I realised that I am currently living the life I had been dreaming about living from the time I was a child. There are a few differences. I hadn't pictured that I'd also be incredibly busy with volunteering and going back to uni and considering a new small business venture. But I wouldn't change that either, I see that I just adapted my dream to my circumstances which is a good thing because if my dreams ended here I'd be left wondering what I'd do next.
This also means that next time I have a bad day I can't really complain, I created this life, time to live it!
