Live Life List

From the time I was a child until I became pregnant, I had always been a dreamer and an ambitious risk taker. Once I became pregnant, the priority was to stay healthy. Since peanut arrived, it has been about smothering peanut with love. But, something struck me the other day; I don't have to choose between goals and dreams and raising Truman. I can, and am now excited to do both. I have never been one to quite understand the concept of balance, but I am up for the challenge.

So...I came up with a Live Life List, not a "bucket list." My Live Life List (3L List) is about balancing aspirations and motherhood to be the best person and mama I can be for peanut, my family, and myself.

Here are a few things on my page and a half list:

Organize a group charitable act



Participate in a triathlon


 
Be able to order an entire meal in Italian


Sell my jewelry line at a huge festival

 


Take a cooking class



Host Thanksgiving or Christmas Donner
