    I wouldn't change a thing. I love the life I have including the struggles. I learned the best lessons from the hard times and I also learned how much I love my life and how hard we are willing to work just to have what we have.

    I HAVE made some bad decisions in my life, but who hasn't. I wouldn't change a thing! I feel that everything that I have experienced in life, has made me who I am today. I kinda like me now.

    I would have changed alot but there are some things I wouldn't change at all. Most importantly I know I would have saved more, that's for sure!

    I don't think I would change anything. All the decisions I have made, good and bad, have made me who I am today.
    On 11-22-85 I married the man of my dreams.
    On 01-13-89 I gave birth to the love of my life.

    We wouldn't have sold our first house and we wouldn't have gotten into business with family. Those two things have put us wear we are today. Other then that I wouldn't change a thing, not even some bad stuff because those are also important things that make us the couple we are today.

    I would start saving earlier. We're doing OK, but those early savings are the ones that really grow.

    I would be more careful on some decisions about building our house. I was just plum ignorant!

    I would have started to tithe earlier. I was a reluctant and frightened tither, thinking that this couldn't possibly work. But once I understood the concept, and began having a good attitude about it, I was amazed at the joys and the peace that tithing can make.

    I would have adopted another child. We couldn't have kids, so we adopted one, and applied to adopt another. But there were so few babies and so many infertile couples. So we weren't able to adopt again. At that time international adoptions were very rare.

    But I'll never regret my choice of hubby, the family I grew up in, the jobs that I have had, the education that I chose, and most of the decisions I've made. It's been a good life and God has blessed us, in spite of myself!!

    I would have slowed down and enjoyed my babies more. I blinked and they're teenagers now. I wish we had spent less and saved more along the way.

    I have no regrets thus far... but I do sometimes feel that these precious baby years are slipping away so quickly.... Thanks for the great reminder to enjoy them while I can, so that I won't regret it later on!

    I would have made a lot of different choices. I would have been more careful choosing mates, choosing a place to live, all of it. Yep, I guess I'd like a re-do. The only thing that makes me appreciate the life I have now is knowing it could have been worse.
