"Five Classes I wish they would have taught in school"

I've been tagged! This is my first ever Meme, so I'm super excited. I was tagged by Kendra over at A Superhero Princess & Monkey (which I can not get enough of), so if you have never been to her blog, go there ASAP after reading this post!



Here are the five classes I wish they would have taught in school ....



Enjoy life before having a family ...

I guess since I was the first among my friends to settle down and have a family, no one really warned me about how your life is going to change in a bitter sweet way. I adore my kids and will do anything for them, but on the other hand, I miss my life without so much responsibilities, spending alone and quality time just hubby and myself.


Pregnancy and all it's woes

I guess this one relates to the one above. But I wish someone would have warned me about the stuff no one talks about... like hair loss (which I will blog about later because I think I'll be bald any day now.)



Risk Taking

There are things that taking a little risk can possibly make a huge difference in life. Somehow, I have always been too reserved to do so. Too timid to take a chance, to risk it all. Looking back, there were plenty of opportunities that I could have taken a risk and maybe making something of it.



Don't sweat the small stuff

It took me a long time to realize that I shouldn't sweat the small stuff. But even now, I still think too much, worry too much and care too much. That is the number one reason why I lose sleep almost every night. I would worry about the smallest little things that really shouldn't matter.


Embrace yourself

This is something that I am still trying to learn through the years. Learning to love how you look and embrace it. I sure miss my pre-pregnancy body!


Alrighty, now it's my turn to tag (this is the exciting part!)

Amy over at My Merry Way

Michelle at Life with Three

Heather at Not a DIY Life

Rose over at It's my life ...

Alrighty ladies... it's your turn! Rules are simple......post your Five Classes and then tag some people. (Be sure to leave them a comment at their blog so they know they've been tagged!)

PS. Much apologies if you don't want to do this... my feelings won't be hurt...

Loved this post! Oh, the hair woes that pregnancy leaves one with. I'm amazed I have any hair left on my head -- it's still falling out by the handful and I gave birth over 10 months ago!

And, I struggle with "sweating the small stuff," too. Seems like worrying is a genetic trait in our family.

Thanks for the tag! I'm up for it -- I'll post tonight! :-)

Aww! SO cute! What a great list - and all so true! I promise I'll get to mine eventually...

Thanks for the comment on Liv's dedication! I feel so lucky that she didn't start screaming up front when my pastor was holding her. She has Stranger Danger too! I attribute her being good to the Pastor & his wife came over late last week to spend some time with us & talk about the dedication.

Anyway, hope all's well in your neck of the woods. Much love and God Bless

Great post sweetie ~ I Loved it!
I agree with you on everything.

If they taught that Pregnancy class in high school there'd be fewer teen pregnancies I'm sure...

I had fun doing this!
