Before I look forward to where I want to be in 5 Years time, let's take a look at the last 5 years.
2013.
-I became engaged in February
-My dad had a heart attack and bypass surgery and survived

-My brother graduated from school too
2014.

-my father broke his leg before the wedding!
2015.

2017.

-my sister got married! gained a brother!
So looking back at my last 5 years I see some wonderful memories and some horrible ones too. Life is certainly full of ups and downs!
The next 5 years I will go into my 30s! Ever since I was little I have associated 30 year olds as parents. My parents were in their 30s when they had me and so I expect in the next 5 years I will become a mother. I also expect that in 5 years time I will be saving towards buying our own home. Probably be no where near affording it but at least putting money aside for it!
Most importantly I hope that in 5 years time I will have grown closer to God and my husband. Those two relationships are so essential to my survival! Whatever horribleness that may come my way I know I can get through it with them!
So here's to my next 5 years! May they be filled with love, joy, peace and prosperity!
