Bums & Bellybuttons

You’ve seen the movie, right? This is my Bucket List. I’ll update it as regularly as possible, adding and removing items as they happen.

• Be a good mother. (Maybe. I’m still uncertain on motherhood.)
• Be a published writer.
• Be a true friend.
• Be an inspiration.
• Be kissed, and often, by someone who knows how. (Thank you, Rhett Butler.)

• Get a tattoo.
• Know my own worth.
