http://farmgirlblogs.com/ethical-essay/I am so excited to start a 101 in 1001 list. I’ve seen these all over many of my favorite blogs and have always wanted to make one. I must say, making this list can be intimidating and a little hard. They are somewhat of a “bucket list” but not spread over a lifetime. The idea of a “101 in 1001” list is to complete 101 things in 1001 days. I love the thought of checking off some of my biggest goals. I finally decided to finish the list once I launched this new blog. I pray that this will motivate our family to have some really fun experiences and “do” rather than just “dream.”
