Thirty-Two

Funny enough, today I found my unpublished draft of Thirty-One. Today it’s 3 days past my thirty-second birthday.

Even more than usual, my wish came true. This last year was a good one. Not only did I do well in school, but I got to present on my research at ACPA. Kari received slightly more support in school and is doing slightly better – the gifted battle is ongoing but there is hope. And, most exciting to us all, we added Kori to our family!

While specifically I do hope next May brings my graduation, I just hope the next year is another good one!

Last night at dinner, I made a wish (it was 31st my birthday) and blew out my candle.  I always have a hard time with wishes, so I took my time.  In my mind this time, I thought about what I want to accomplish this year, where I see myself next year, but in the end, I  just wished it’s a good one. I always end up doing this.  I cannot explain some of the good things that have happened to me, but I have settled on prepared luck.

Here’s to the next year full of preparation, hard work and a bit of luck!
