Another year has come and gone

Gosh.. I feel like when you get older, time begins to FLY by. I had always heard that but am just now beginning to believe it. I feel like just yesterday I was starting college and now I have graduated and in my last year of playing basketball. I'm not going to lie, it is a little depressing to be getting older. I remember when I couldn't wait to be 21 and wish I could stop right there and not get any older. With turning 23 today, it really makes me stop and think. Even though it is somewhat depressing to get older, I must say that I have so much God has blessed me with. To kind of lift my spirits about getting older, I thought of 23 things that God has blessed me with. So here goes : )

1. A heavenly father who loves me through everything

2. Godly parents

3. the good health of my family

4. a college degree

5. chance to play bball in college
