REGRETS

I always say I don’t have any and that it is a waste of time to regret things you can’t change BUT I do have them. In no particular order…

I regret not getting closer to my pledge class. I was SO blessed to have such a great group of friends that I unfortunately never took the time to get to know other people. I was such a jerk.

I regret not running that marathon. I didn’t have a choice in this one but I still get mad about it. Savanna and I spent months training and a week before the race I chipped my knee cap in a soccer game. This is luckily something I can change but I really miss my training partner. She always kicked me out of bed at 5am after I hit snooze a million times=)

I regret not having more respect for myself to move on after a failed relationship. Love is blind and I wasted a lot of time, energy, and happiness trying to make something work that was not part of God’s plan for my life.

I regret how selfish I was when I found out I was pregnant knowing that I wouldn’t have as much “me time” anymore. I used to be one of those people that said I love babies but I love sleep more or thank goodness that as a babysitter I can always hand them back. I was so naïve. There is no greater blessing than being a parent. There is nothing in this world that could be more important than my daughter and there is no where I would rather be than with her and my husband. I realize most people my age don’t get or think I am crazy but I am so LUCKY.  It is so much more fulfilling than whatever crazy thing I would be selfishly doing without my family!
