    I would be a doula(aka-birthing coach) empower mothers(especially first time) to let their bodies work FOR them. My biggest dream is to visit Africa. Hey maybe I could be a doula in Africa!

    If I could be or do anything I would be a dog groomer! =) Seriously though you know within minutes what a dog thinks about you! Biggest dream for the future is to finish each part of my educational goals but taking it one step at a time!

    Marcie and Lydia. I can see both of you doing that. It seems you were almost made for those careers.

    Melissa. My heart is aching friend. You will be a mom. I know it is no resolve but you are already mothering a slew of teenage hearts. Your child that you birth/adopt is going to be one lucky little one. A mother you are.

    CJ. A dog groomer. Cool. I have a question. If that is what you really want to be then why in the world are you continuing to go to school for this amount of years? Just Curious.

    My biggest dream is to be the best mom I can, and that my children know that I love them. That I get to enjoy my Grandchildren.

    At this moment it is to finish this stupid marathon training, but if I could do anything I would love to hike Everest. That is a dream. My reality is just to go to base camp! H

    I would own a flower shop. I would want to design the arrangements, but I would also want to deliver them. Do you know how special people feel when they get flowers…..I would love to see joy everyday. I would skip the deliveries to the funeral home…..I don’t want to see that look on their face. yikes!

    My dream is to play Laurie in Oklahoma on Broadway. But seeing as how Lauri is 20, and I am 33, that may not happen in this lifetime. Maybe I could play Aunt Eller in a few years. :)

    I would LOVE to wear out my days on this earth in an effort to tell girls about the passionate romantic love of God. I would LOVE to spend many months loving on orphaned children. Physically looking into their eyes and taking a hold of their hands.

    It is a dream of/for my future. Sometimes it comes in waves of daydreams. Sometimes I wake with the idea greatly haunting me.

    At this moment my heart is overflowing and spilling out in the form of tears.

    Photography is a hobby. I love it. It is fun and brings me some cash. But it is not my deepest dream to be the world’s best photographer or to have the trendiest shop (although that would be SO cool) in town. Although sometimes that is where my dreams land.

    God is continuing to stir every emotion in my being. These days I cannot point to the exact thing He is doing. Maybe, just maybe, that is the point.

    He is my love and in Him I shall rest.

    I have always wanted to be a news caster - like an anchor - not the ones out in the 5 o’clock rush hour reporting on the heat index.

    dorky, I know!

    Jamie. I think you would make a great anchor. How about dumping the news and going for The View. I along with thousands of viewers would tune in to watch you. I dare you to send in a video to a news agency. I am reading Barbara Walters book and she said the secret is to just go to your local station and start finding an in. She was over 30 when she started on the Today Show. At least that is the way I remember it.

    Amy. I loved the movie Bed of Roses. Didn’t that guy quit his “real” job so that he could deliver flowers to see all the happy faces?
    .
    Jen. You could put it downtown like McKay’s.
    .
    Heather. I can’t wait to read about you rocking Mt.Everest. I have a feeling you will so do it.
    .
    Karina. You are a good mom. I also want to be a really awesome Grandma. That is one day A LONG TIME FROM NOW.

    I know I am insane! Its hard to explain…=) I guess though the whole reason behind the DREAM of being a dog groomer was because of my fear of PEOPLE! I really would not have to deal with them much that way! But I have been working really hard to break out of my comfort zone. If only I had 1/10th the personality of Carly and Christian then I would have no problems! =)

    After much consideration, I thought I would respond to this - finally. I have been looking at this particlar blog for weeks. Anyway, I would love to be a wonderful, loving, godly grandmother to my two grandsons - they are SO cute! That is the desire of my heart. Blessings.
