I remember listening to Deana Carter sing "Strawberry Wine" as a teenager. One of the lines was "when I thought 30 was old" I used to think that think 30 was really old...but now it's right around the corner....As a teenager I thought a lot of things...here are a few thoughts from the past.
1. I thought I would be married by the age of 22.
2. I thought high school and college would be the best years of my life (thank goodness my life is much better now than it was then)
3. I thought it would be fun to go on dates with lots of different guys...until I went on dates with lots of different guys and realized it was NOT fun at all...(boy do I have some stories)
4. I thought my wedding day would be the best day of my life...and believe me..it was GREAT...but I think actually being with my husband day in and day out is so much better.
5. I thought I'd be a stay at home mom my whole life..
6. I also thought raising children "couldn't be that hard." (I don't even have any yet..and I already realize how faulty my thinking was)
7. I used to think I wasn't "that much like my parents" until one day I caught myself singing and saying all the phrases my mom used to.
8. I used to think that it was easier to be an adult and not have anyone "telling me what to do."
9. I also thought that staying up really late was fun...I now like to go to bed around 9:30.
10. I used to be so disheartened if I was at home on a weekend night...now I look forward to it...
10.
