Day 29: Three wishes

1. To be a good Mom and have a good relationship with my daughter and any future children. I want to set a good example for her to be happy and successful in what she does.

2. Get a good job that I love. Too often you hear about people hating their jobs and missing out on their passion.

3. To have fun and get to do things with my kids that I never got to do. I want to travel and take her on vacations. I want to have date nights with Isaac and play dates with my nieces...This list could go on and on

Day 23: Favourite vacation

Toss-up between going to see Mike in Saskatoon SK or Renee in Inverness FL. I took a bus out west by myself at 16. Hadn't seen him in three years. Met all of his family. Had crazy adventures on Greyhounds. I drove with Renee's mom to see her down south for Christmas. Also hadn't seen her in a few years. Got a surprise ticket to Disney World as a gift from our parents.

Day 22: Your favourite city

Does it have to be a "city?"  If so, I pick Ottawa.  If I had to live there, I'd live outside of town like I did before.  Close enough to easily get there in a hurry, but far enough away from the hubbub that comes with the downtown core.  It's really pretty and historical.  There is a lot to learn there.  It has a very small-town feel, despite being the nation's capital.  This is in part because of the Experimental Farm and Green Belt.  Also because you cannot build a structure any taller than the Peace Tower in Parliament.  It's too big and busy for me but there are a lot of opportunities there.  I enjoyed my four years there and plan to visit often. 

If it can be a "village," I choose my home town.  Obviously.
