There is a reason I wanted to start this blog challenge...


And it was because I wanted a reason to blog every day. Alas, I have failed. So I will be doing the 6th as well as todays.
First things first, it is my birthday! I am officially 24 years of age today :) My husband agreed to let me get a puppy for my birthday and boy is he a cutie! 



See? We have yet to officially name him yet, but he is a klutzy cutie pie. I love him already!! The Monster instantly bonded with him, and the Munchkin is a teensy jealous but is warming up fast.
Anywho, enough about my egotistical look at me! look at me! I have a puppy! cries. The sixth of March was the last random act of kindness I did. I guess technically it would be I paid for the mom behind me in the drive through at McDonalds. I could hear her pleading with her kids to just let her order their food and her coffee and then she would look at whatever it was they were yelling about. I took pity because I had had one of those days the day before. I do not generally like to advertise acts of kindness like that though because I feel like they lose some value if you are telling everyone about it. Like you are looking for validation. I think everyone should try doing something nice, and not telling anyone. See how much your week improves :)
The seventh of March, (today, my birthday! Did you SEE that adorable puppy???) is my dream job. Growing up it changed a lot, but I have decided what I really want to do is be a social worker. I know the pay is normally crap and it normally gives you a jaded view of the world, but the opportunity to help children who genuinely need help? That appeals to me, how could it not appeal to someone? I want to help children get placed with genuinely caring foster parents/adoptive parents. I want to make childrens lives better. 

Anyone elses dream job not so glamorous?
