Our assignment: I thought this week we could write something fun or just take a look back at our lives and what we wanted to do when we were so young!   It'll be fun to read about what everyone thought they would be doing when they were young...did you ever think you'd be homeschooling?

When I was a little girl I always wanted to work with animals.  I dreamed of living on a farm, being a vet and breeding Arabian horses and Germain Sheppard's.

I changed my mind on the vet idea when I was in my late teens.  I simply didn't have the money for university.  I'm sure glad I did or I would never have met my wonderful husband!!  We both love the farm/homestead life.  We've lived on big farms, in apartments and on a big lot like we are now.  Still working to get back to a large land base.  I don't breed horses or dogs.  Maybe someday  but I do breed one of my favorite breed of cats, Manx!  And we also farm rabbits.

When I was little I never wanted to get married or have children.  So no I didn't think I would be homeschooling!  But thankfully my life changed on that!  But I did know that IF I had children I absolutely would homeschool.  Thankfully dh and I have always agreed on that.

I didn't want to get married or have children when I was young either. :-) I enjoyed your post!

I've always loved being around animals. My brother and sis-in-law raise and breed Arabian horses on their ranch in South Carolina, USA...they're beautiful animals! It surprises me that you never thought you'd have children, you seem like a natural born mother. Thank you for sharing your dreams...thank for the congrats on my "almost here" granddaughter.
