My goals:
Raise a family
My highest priority in this life is to raise a righteous family with my husband. I want to have several children, and I want to raise them in the gospel. That doesn’t mean they will necessarily stay in the gospel, because I don’t have control over that- but it does mean that they will grow up with Family Home Evening, going to church every week, and knowing that their parents have testimonies. I think that it’s important that my kids grow up in a safe neighborhood, and that they have the opportunities to go to good schools. Supporting them in sports, musical endeavors, and scholastic opportunities is important to me.
Adopt a child
I want to adopt a child someday. Because I have some medical problems, I know that conceiving children of my own may turn out to be difficult. I want to adopt at least one child, and possibly more. I’ve always wanted to help a child get a better life- and I feel that adoption is one way that I can do that, while helping my family grow. I would love to adopt a child with special needs- one who has been abandoned because he/she is unwanted by other couples because of that. I want to show that child (and any other child I come in contact with) that they are loved.
Help those who suffer from posttraumatic stress disorder- mainly children and returned soldiers. A degree in music therapy is my goal, because it would help me be more successful in that endeavor. I love music, and I feel that I can help others get to a more stable and better emotional state through my work with that. I feel that
Visit Japan
Anthony has fallen in love with japan over the years, and I have begun to love their culture as well. I want to learn to speak Japanese, and visit the country- maybe for an extended period of time. Right now, I only speak English, but I’m working on learning the Japanese alphabet. I want to go a lot of places- italy, for example, and spain, but japan is at the top of my list.
Serve a mission
I’ve always wanted to serve a full time mission. When I prayed about it, I felt that I needed to stay home and get married. That’s fine- I love being married, but someday I want to go on a full time couples mission with Anthony. I look forward to serving the Lord thru my entire life, but I am especially excited to walk this path. I want to set that example for my children.
This is a life goal, I promise. I want to go to the temple on my wedding anniversary every year. I want this to be an example to my posterity and my family. I want them to realize that my marriage is more than just a contract between my husband and I- first and foremost it is a covenant with the Lord that needs to be honored. I feel that going to the temple on our anniversary will give that understanding to those who are watching.
