I turned twenty-nine.
My whole twenties I've spent warding off the big 3-0 not wanting any part of it.
I've been going through a very personal journey these past few years.
Having married young, mothering two young children, living a world away from your entire family and facing life threatening illnesses have each, in their own way, taken pieces of me and placed them into a bottle and sent out into the big vast ocean.
This weekend I climbed upon a boat in search of Kelli.
Who am I?What in life is important to me?
Believe me I have some pretty good idea's of what I am, but are they what I want to be?
This weekend I was baptized.
I have just begun a new journey towards the rest of my life.
I'm so excited to share this time with you.
I will be thrilled to turn thirty and thank God for another year here on earth with my family, both near and far.
***A great big thank you to all my friends and family that supported and encouraged me, I love you all!***
