Upcomming Birthday

It is hard to believe another year has passed me by. I accomplished alot, but procrastinated too. I am about to turn 33 which I guess for almost everyone would be considered well into adulthood...but I find my ability to imagine and play gets better every year. The world continues to become a more wonderous and beautiful place every year. To my darling daughter I will always be "as old as dirt" lol! Yet she will be the first to tell you how much I like to play! She jokes about my toys and craft projects too=) I made my wish list this year, as my husband requested. It was hard for me for as many of you know he was downsized from his job 7 months ago and is still not reemployed. My husbands family has been supplementing income for us for the past 19 months. Hard to ask for more than that. However, here is the long awaited list.
