I have two sons that I adore, a teenager and a toddler. I am lucky enough to own two miniature poodles that are very special to me. My dream when I was a child was to go traveling and that dream came true. I got a paper round when I was thirteen and saved up to go to Greece when I was fourteen. I got a Saturday job in a shop and saved to go to the Netherlands with my friend when I was seventeen. Since I was a teenager I have been to about fifty different countries. Which are the most wonderful things about your life? Is there anything missing that you think would make you enjoy your life more?

The most wonderful things about my life are My 3 beutiful daughters (14,16&20), My beutiful Grandaughter(2), My dog, my 3 cats, I have a really good job that I really enjoy and all of my coworkers are great. I dont think that there is really anything much missing but it is quite a struggle to make ends meet these days. Other than that I think my life is pretty great.

One of the wonderful things in my life was getting my own place, my first taste of freedom and independence at the age of 27. Travel, like your good self was also wonderful experiences, especially camping and going on a big adventure to Scotland on my own with the car, bike and a tent! Flying for the first time was also a big experience as well as flying on my own. Going to a foreign country on my own, Rhodes was great. I guess we take so much for granted and don't focus enough on the positive things of life which we need to when we are down or during the long Winter nights.

Wow you travelled at a young age. I have never been out of my country and I am already 35. Anyways, this year I got to buy my own car. It may be loaned and it's just second hand but at least I got to buy my own. It's a Mitsubishi GLXi model and it was painted nicely and in good condition. I have 5 kids 3 boys and 2 girls. My eldest is in college now 1st year taking up HRM- Hotel Restaurant Management. She's 16. My second is 1st year high school. My 3rd is at his final grade in elementary Grade 6. My 4th is Grade 1 and my youngest is in kinder. I have a good job that pays more than my other sibs are earning. Even though I haven't finished college I landed a good paying job. It took a while before I saw this job though and had to work at small paying jobs first then I landed here and it's real good.I got to buy most of what we need and pay for our bills and I even got to hire a househelp to help in the chores around the house. This things are the events that I have in my life that are wonderful. All my kids are healthy, my parents are still here, my family is not broken and we get to live day by day, we have a roof on our heads, clothings and food to eat..that's all the wonderful things of my life. The things missing are a plenty but I don't think of it much. I just think that if it's for me then things will happen for me like magic..but if it's not then I am contented in what I have right now...nothing less and nothing more..everything just even.

I have two wonderful children and a step daughter and a loving and wonderful husband whom I wouldn't trade for the world. I would be lost without him...He really is my rock. The only thing I wish I had was a good career. I missed my chance in university and now I am regretting it but at the time it was not the place for me. I have gone back to school since then and have acheived some of what I wanted to. Now I am a stay at home mom and I do enjoy it but at times I wonder if my life would have been easier if I had of stuck it out in university.

The wonderful things in my life are my partner who loves me for who am i. Then i have five wonderful children (4 boys 17,15,7 and 2 and one daughter who is 11} who never give me much trouble. Then it would be my border collie who is alot of fun. Then my two cats who can be rather amusing at times. I am fairly content with my life the way it is. I can't think of anything that is missing from my life at the moment.

I think the most wonderful things about life is love. I have my family, I love all of them. My husband, my parents, though I do not have any children now, I am sure I will give them the greatest love in this world. And another thing is traveling. It is really nice that I have been living in 3 different countries. I guess I will try to settle down in the 4th country if I have the opportunity.

I have a wonderful husband and my gorgeaous dogs but, I regret getting into debt so young because if I hadn't I too would have done so much travelling by now and been to many different countries. I know in the next couple of years things will change for the better as I get rid of the debts finally but, I really do wish I could travel more now! x
