What did you want to be / do when you grew up?

Now that I'll be 45 in less than two weeks, looking back at my life choices as an adult, I'm glad I became a mom. I'm not proud of some of the other decisions I made, but I'm still here. I'm in school now and that's all that matters, even if it's 24 years late in the making.

So, what do I wanna be when I grow up? A wiser adult than I've been. A better mother. A more loving wife and a person who still tries to see that there's good in people even when those people have wronged me.

I regularly catch myself saying "when I grow up, ..." when I detail some more far-fetched plans. I will probably still say that at 80, if I live that long.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
