Wishing

This year, I wish...

...that Lucas will eat more, drink more milk and stay healthy.

...that I will travel less for work and more for pleasure (I think this is the hardest to accomplish).

...for my sister to finally get her green card process started.

...to make more money (who doesn't want more money?)

...for more people to pay for my photographs.

...to go home to the Philippines.

...for a MacBook Pro.

...for a safe delivery of my brother's baby, and for a healthy baby too.

...to wear a bikini again and not be ashamed of it.

...to meet at least one of my cyber friends in person.

...for another holiday with my parents.

All of these wishes are achievable with discipline, hard work, prayer and a little bit of luck.  I hope to achieve even half of them.  But if God grants me all of them, then what a wonderful year it would be! :-)
