We went to Benihana tonight and used Dwight's birthday coupon. Gracie especially loves Benihana. I got some really fun pictures that I'll add tomorrow. I don't want to walk downstairs for my camera. :) There were 2 old couples sitting at the table next to us. Pretty old, like in their 80s for sure. They were the really cute kind. The men were dressed in suits. The women had perfect hair and nails and pretty make up. I want to be like that when I'm old. It made me think of how much life they have experienced. How things have changed in the world. The opportunities they have had. I want to be a cute little old couple some day and look back on my life with gratitude for all my opportunities. With my little health scares I recently had a conversation with Dwight about life. I haven't made a bucket list exactly, but I've been thinking about what I would regret doing or not doing if I lay on my death bed. I will not ever regret not having a fancy car. I won't regret not having a lot of money. But, I want to create as many memories with my little family as possible. I want to look back and know that my kids know that I love them with all of my heart and that they know right from wrong because I taught them. I want to know that they will testify of Christ and serve him. I want to know that I did everything I could for them and with them. I have such a blessed life.
