You get it. Lots and lots of things. And then I decided I didn't care anymore. And I don't. That much. I haven't given up on that one Coach bag, but generally don't want anything more than I have.
In our car on a Sunday afternoon I know that I have every single thing I could want. He loves me, respects me and shares the care of our sweet children. They're healthy, happy and still think we're great. The car has four tires, a running engine and carries us safely to our activities. We park in the garage of our home that's warm, clean and comfortable.
It would be dishonest to say that I don't wish for new lip gloss every other Thursday and a beautiful new piece of jewelry on our anniversary, but I want for nothing. How blessed I am. Truly, truly blessed.

Its amazing how time makes you want different things.
I agree with shortmama...it is strange how that works.
However, that being said, I want a Coach bag too. : )
soooo love the want list...i would agree totally on chocolate and 800 thread count sheets! would add starbucks and diet coke, bc i love to eat my feelings!!
It's good to want things, but even better to appreciate what we have. There's also a level of priority - while I want that Coach bag (boy do I want it), I'd first spend the money on clothes. LOL - priority.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and thanks for the follow. Following back. :)
