The road to revolution...

Below is one of my favorite pictures from the Peace Corps. I can't believe it has been 2.5 years since I have come back to the states. That time was such a challenging time, but reflecting on it makes me feel stronger and definitely nostalgic.

 I was 22 years old when I went into the Peace Corps; that is younger than my sister! I can't believe all that has transpired since I have been back. I have been in and out of relationships, changed careers, moved three times, lost my beautiful grandmother, met a wonderful man from across the ocean who just happened to be taking a chemistry class right next to mine. Married that man within six months of knowing him :) and here I am pregnant expecting in June! This baby will be the first biracial/bicultural baby in either of our families, more to come on that later I am sure.

 Of course this blog is all about making what you want a tangible reality and what I want is a healthy family that is inspired every day to contribute to the happiness of each other and the well being of the world around them. I want a career that I enjoy and in which I can make a real contribution to society. More to come on all of these... until then, please enjoy the pictures below :)
