Lately I keep thinking about how great it would be to live on a huge piece of land growing vegetables and having a few animals. A place that it didn't really matter how you dressed, what your hair looks like and if you ever wear make up. I would like to go to a place like that to raise our kids in a wholesome environment. A place you can just run around all day and play.
Maybe I was a hippie free spirit kind of lady in a past life. I just think to run around in free flowing sun dresses and feeding baby goats while my children picked fresh vegetables would be such a life. Going in to town once or twice a month for essentials and only going to the big city to see family.
Maybe we could sell the house and everything in it and buy an RV and just travel the U.S. Teaching the kids about every landmark and stopping at every Farmer's Market we can. Sounds so fun yet relaxing.
OK back to reality. I am finding myself a little stressed out the past few days. The school year is coming to an end, I am planning a family vacation ( that I seem to only be interested in), Natalie is trying out for cheer, and a million other things are going on. I can't help but be a little sad at the fact Lauren will be a Junior and after that a Senior. I am almost worried this next school year will fly by. I am so not looking forward to her leaving for College but at the same time very excited. Yes I am jumping ahead but my mind is just like that.
I guess every once in a while it is nice to step out of reality into my little dream world.
Who wouldn't love to escape to this place?
