I wonder<\/span><\/strong> if I’ll grow old. (When I was a kid I thought 50 was old.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> what “old” is. (Now that I’m 50 . . .)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> how many (if any) grandchildren I will have. (Have to let my kids grow up and get married first.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> if my children will be “hands-on” or “distant” when they grow up and leave home. (Who knows?)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> why God loves me. (I know that He does, I’m just amazed at it.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> why I would be missed if I died tomorrow. (Hope it’s not just because of the laundry or baking birthday cakes – I know it wouldn’t be for my housekeeping.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> when I’ll get published. (Need to finish that book!)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> if my husband and I will really get to go on that Alaskan cruise for our 25th anniversary. (That’s only three years away.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> if I’ll ever get to live in New York City. (We have this fantasy of moving there when all the kids are gone and living in a one-bedroom flat in Manhatten.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> why anyone other than close friends and family read this blog. (Well, why do you?)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> how I got three fantastic children. (They really are the greatest kids in the world.)<\/em>
I wonder<\/span><\/strong> how I’m going to end this blog post. (The End.)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
