Maybe not much from that list but... you've comforted your kids when no one else would do, you've had 3 special people show you how much they love you, you've provided the necessities for life to two small children, you've married the man you love, you've stayed up all night with worry over sick family members... I'd say you've done okay. Some things just aren't as important as others.
i think mostly i just feel like i haven't traveled very much... alot of stuff on that list is about traveling... lol :)
Um, I haven't done to many on that list. It is kind of depressing :)
Oh, 30 is the "new" 20, you still have 10 more years to work on your already impressive list.
