I'll NEVER!

My darling neighbor did a fun post I thought I'd steal (or swipe as it's now said in my house thanks to Dora.)

We've all said it....I'll NEVER (fill in the blank)! Only to find ourselves doing the exact thing years (sometimes days!) later. I don't like to have guilt over the "giving in" as it may appear, but rather kick myself in the rear for being so ignorant as to make such a comment.

Here are some of mine:

"I'll NEVER let my child sleep in our bed...or even in our room for that matter!!"
Lincoln slept in our room for the first 3 months of life and Noah slept in our bed for the first 2 months.

"I'll NEVER move back home to Arkansas!!" (said after I left for Cali for college)
Moved back 5 years later to finish up my Master's where I then said:

"I'll NEVER stay in Arkansas after I graduate w/ my Masters!!"
A few months before graduation, I married my husband...who was a basketball coach in Arkansas.

"I will NEVER wear a skirt that comes to my knees!"
Right.

"I will NEVERquit running every day for the rest of my life!"

"I will NEVER wear skinny jeans!"

Okay. I still don't do this b/c I'm still convinced they look AWFUL on me.

Stolen from Mrs. Amanda...but true for me as well, "I will NEVER drive a minivan!"

I still don't but I wish I did b/c they're ultra convenient and conducive to little kids...the cool SUV's just are NOT.

I'm sure there's a million more, but here's my latest one to kick of 2011:

I will NEVER say "I'll never."!

Here's to being open. :)
