Day Five: Something you hope to do in your life.


This is a complex question for me because I have SO many answers.  Obviously I want to travel... travel to at least a few places in Europe, Australia etc...  but most importantly I want to have a family of my own.  
Ever since I was a little girl, I loved playing house with dolls and pretend with my stuff animals.  Not only do I want my own family, but I really want to adopt a child as well as have my own.  I was adopted at birth and would love to pay it forward.  I am so fortunate to be put with such amazing parents!  They both would do anything for both my sister and myself (and everyone around them).  I am always thanking God for putting me where I am and making that adoption part of my life plan.  I always drift and think of where my life would be if I had not been adopted.  I do not know much about my birth parents, except that they were very young when they had me.  I think its a very selfless act to give up your child when you know that you cannot give them the life they deserve. I want to give a child a home that doesn't have one and a life full of love and happiness that they deserve.  I want to pay it forward.  Since I cannot pay my biological parents back, I want to pay it forward.
