I am a forty+ year old happily (we truly finally got it right) married mother of two who is now expecting our third child. YES that was a shocker but we are over the shock now and extremly excited! Our new little addition is expected to arrive in August! We moved to PA almost 2 years ago and the only regret we have is that we did not do it sooner (for alot of reasons), but we are happy to be here :)
I have learned quite a few things in my forty+ years-here are just a few:
I have learned that I have alot of traits from my parents-some good and some not so good...
I have learned that blood is always thicker than water...
I have learned that a rarely forgive but I NEVER forget...
I have learned that life is truly to short...
I have learned that sometimes we don't get to say goodbye and even the times that we do get to say goodbye-doesn't make it any easier...
I have learned that loved ones that are taken from us-no matter how they are taken away from our lives- are always in our hearts and in our memories...
I have learned that we should say all that we need to say today because there might not be a tomorrow...
I have learned that regrets are usually always forever...
I have learned all choices have consequences and they affect everyone in your life....
I have learned that saying "I am sorry" and truly being sorry are two totally different things..
I have learned that no matter how much you love your children-you must let them make their own mistakes even if it breaks your heart...
I have learned to be careful because not everyone is who they appear to be(some good and some bad)...
I have learned that I am the type of person that if I am truly your friend-I am truly your friend but I am also the person who is evil enough to vow that if you cross me or one of mine-I will be your worst nightmare...
I have learned that what goes around-comes around-sometimes when you least expect it...
I have learned that you can love someone all of their life, make more sacrifices for them than they will ever know and one day wake up and not even recognize them...
I have learned that even small children feel such sadness over losing someone that they truly love...
I have learned that a father's sadness over his daughter can literally break his heart and does not ever heal with time...
I have learned that being a parent is a very hard job but being a "good" parent is an even harder job...
I have learned that deception and heartbreak can come from people you never thought possible...
I have learned that there is no more comforting place than "home"...
I have learned that sometimes the pain is so great that you just can't go back no matter how hard you try...
I have learned that just when you think you have your life all planned out-god sends you a little surprise...
I have learned that at forty+ years-I am still learning all of life's lessons...
But more than anything I have learned that "everything happens for a reason" as my mom used to sayI am not sure of alot of the reasons why the things have happened this way but I guess I need to believe it is all apart of the plan for usSo take a true good look at your life now and see what all you have learned and if you like the plan that has been set for you......If not it is never too late to make a change
