It's kind of hard for me to think about where I am going to be and what I am going to be d0ing in 10 years - it seems so far away. At the same time, though, I know that these upcoming years are going to fly past me, so it's definitely a good idea for me to be thinking about my goals.
In 10 years' time, I hope to be married with at least 3 kids, one of whom will be adopted from either Guatemala or Romania. After getting married and before having kids, though, I hope to have had some time to travel around the world with my husband. I've never been to Europe, so I would love to go there. That's only the beginning of the list of places that I want to visit, though, so hopefully we will be able to save our money and do these things. In 10 years, I want to have a beautiful home with a lot of land. The land is necessary so that the 1 or 2 dogs that we will have will be able to run around freely and also so that the kids will have places to get some of the energy out of their systems. I actually don't really care where, exactly, that beautiful home from my dreams is located; I've moved so many times that it wouldn't bother me to live in a place that is not too close to my home now. However, I wouldn't be opposed to staying somewhere on the East Coast.
Now, on to professional goals. I hope to have graduated from Clemson University in the top of my class with a major in Accounting and a minor in Financial Management and then gone on to get my CPA. In 10 years, I hope that it is not too ambitious to say that I want to be the CFO of a company. I think that with my personality and my drive for hard work and perfection, this goal is a real possibility. I want to do something with my life that matters - something that proves that all of my hard work throughout my whole educational life paid off. I want to be able to make enough money so that I can give it to churches and orphanages and to people who need the money more than I do.
In 10 years' time, I also hope to have continued to grow in my faith. This is the most important goal, for me, I believe.
Well, I hope that I am able to meet all of these goals ... and I really hope that the time doesn't literally fly past me. :)

I love that you are planning to adopt children! My husband says no NOW, but I am hoping after we have an empty nest he'll feel differently, lol. =o) We'll still be pretty young when the kids go to college, so it would make perfect sense to adopt at least one kid.
