Life...Goals

It's funny how some life goals come about.  These days people talk about a bucket list.  I wonder if they just choose things at random for their list, or if there is meaning behind each item.  I'm sure if I had made a list at age 20 it would have looked much different than a potential list I would make today.  For example, 50 states.  I got to accomplish that lovely goal last May, but before meeting Eric I doubt it was much on my radar.  Seven continents are probably on the list, too, but not every single country in the world.  Too many countries, not enough time, other things I'd rather do.

Anyways, after we had Ben in Kenya in 2011, Eric and I started joking about how we could have each of our children in different countries...no wait, different continents!  The more we talked about it, the more realistic it seemed, since about 2 yrs after Ben's birth would put us in France, around the right time to have baby #3.  I hate to say it was our good planning, because I really think instead it's God's good providence, but ....

April 9, 2013.  Goal (soon to be) attained.  Probably no more kids after this because really, when are we going to find ourselves in Asia/South America/Australia/Antarctica?
