You can do number 6 when you come out in July! Many of them. I like your list. Makes me think I want to do one…but sadly it’ll probably be wedding related stuff.

What a great list! I made a ’43 things’ list when I turned 43 earlier this month. I like your list, and there are several things on there I wish were on mine! Maybe next year on the 44 list….

I know I won’t make the cut for #39, so could you squeeze me in on #30? 🙂

Katrina, you have inspired me! I will turn 41
In March and now I want to make a list too.

Of monthly dates with your son and sending 2 cards
A month. I will let you know what else I come up
