22. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 15 years?
{five years} In five years, I hope to be planning our trip to Disney with Emma. I want her to be able to remember it and I think that age (5) would be perfect to go there for the first time. We plan to surprise her too with it. Possibly when we get off the plane! I know, I know, talk about thinking ahead. I also would like to have much more moolah saved. Maybe there is a little brother for Emma and the girls??? Aaron is reading this like whaaaaaa???? Also...I would like to think I am having some sort of awesome 40th birthday celebration since I never have anything going on on my birthdays.
{ten years} In ten years, I would like to think I worked up the balls to get a job I love instead of being stuck at one that just pays well. Or better yet, being a stay at home mom. Hell...that could happen in five years and I'd be happy. I am horrible at these future things since I don't plan that far ahead in the future. I would also hope to still look young for my age.
{fifteen years} Holy shit, I'd be turning 50 that year. I would have a fifteen year old daughter who I hope doesn't hate me. I really hope to have an awesome relationship with her even through her teen years. I am going to have to go do lots of yoga to remind myself to stay calm and just listen to her when she has problems instead of acting like her issues don't matter. They do and I would like to be there for her. I want to be her shoulder to cry on when fighting with friends or *cringe* boy problems. I also would like to think Aaron and I would be still madly in love and celebrating our 17th anniversary that year. I also hope we would be living in a house. I know, that is wishful thinking but it would be awesome. Even a townhouse would do.

I hate that buying a house (or any property) is so difficult. There are a lot of good people out there, I think, who simply aren't given a chance. I was just turned down for a credit card because I've never had a credit card!
I hope you can get a better job in the future, but I can appreciate you doing something that pays well if it's what is necessary to help your family.
Aw! Loved reading this! It's fun, but sometimes scary, to look into the future =)
