Wishes. Hopes. Dreams.
Nothing makes goals happen like writing them down, I’m a fan of long timelines, I like to take my time to dabble my toe and then jump in and complete something wholeheartedly. I heard about the 101 in 1001 about a year ago. I started mine on May 31, 2008 so I’ve got an end date of: February 26th, 2011 I chose it for it would have been my Mother’s 44th Birthday. For anyone who wants to read more they can visit here.
For now here’s a look at all my hopes lined up in a row, from middle, to small to big!
