I Always Wanted To Be A Tenenbaum.

Marriage.

Last night, Wayde & I participated in session #1 of a four week course on marriage through our church. I can’t say that I particularly felt the need to attend, nor did I take much away from our first night of class, but it opened up some interesting conversations between the Hubby & me afterwards.

Hopes & dreams were discussed. Specifically, what is God’s purpose for our marriage? What can we accomplish together for the Kingdom? What our some of our goals as a couple?

We are on the brink of acheiving one of my major life goals this year—parenthood. Our baby is due to arrive in approximately 46 days, so I’m trying to check off every last thing on my to-do list. I’ve packed up my craft room & all of the pretty vintage dresses that used to fit me pre-pregnancy.

I’m as excited as I am terrified of becoming a mother.

And now I must figure out where my desires/ our goals fit into this new picture—our longings to create, to travel, to serve.

I’ll admit though, it’s much easier going through life without any goals too lofty to come into fruition.
