Well, it’s here.
Today is the last day.

I have had such an amazing 30 days of Megan.

I have tried new foods.
Held a baby.
Gotten hugged.
Watched Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along.
Gotten my hair cut.
Taken pictures.
Seen people who live far away.
Received presents in the mail.
Eaten a lot of candy.
Written strong words.
Received a lot of compliments.
Danced
Talked on the phone
Worn a big purple flower in my hair
Rocked out to music
Told stories
Taught my classes
Went to yoga
And felt incredibly loved.

It’s been an amazing 30 days.
While I am sad it is over, I’m excited.
I know there is so much more coming.

That’s why I made a list of 30 things to look forward to.
They are either things I hope or know are coming.
It’s a little like a bucket list-you’ll see things on there I’ve never done before.
You’ll also see things I’ve done plenty of times but need to do again.

I committed the list to my body, today.
It’s my way of looking forward.
