39
I can’t believe that I am staring at that number. I am just a year before I reach the next check box bracket on all the surveys lol. Tomorrow, I will be entering my fortieth year and turning a very intimidating 39. In some ways it is depressing, but in other ways, I am happy to be here because of my family.
I don’t really feel all that old and in fact, I look at myself as a young mother. My boys are only five years old, so I have lots of keeping up to do. I have even entertained the idea of having a sibling for them, I really am not sure that I am done. A lot of people think having twins or multiples solidifies your family, but since my husband and I started late, I sometimes feel like we just got started.
I like to believe age is just a number, or at least I keep telling myself that, so I don’t lament over that number up there. Whoever thought to make a big deal out of turning forty? At least I don’t feel over the hill yet.
Here’s to many more days where I still feel young enough to be happy about turning another year older. Happy Birthday To Me!
Age is just a number! Enjoy your day! 🙂
I just turned forty and don’t even feel like I’m forty. It’s just a number anyway.
Happy Birthday!!!
I do agree that age is just a number. Enjoy your day — Happy Birthday.
Happy Birthday! I know I don’t feel old and I’m 40. 🙂
40 isn’t old. You know they say that the 50s are the new 30s?!?! It really is a number.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I turned 29 earlier this month and had/have anxiety about the big 3-0 approaching. I do not take growing older well.
I will be 46 this year and have no thoughts about it, I still get carded so that makes me happy LOL. I worry more about my health and changes that will happen to my body so I am always researching 🙂 Happy Birthday to you Mommy!
Happy Birthday, Laurie!!!! I didn’t take 30 well at all so anything after that was cake.
I’m right behind you!
I’ve got 2 years before hitting 60 (YES SIXTY) and I LOVE it. At my age I can do and say whatever I want! Believe me when I tell you that most everything gets better with age.
I’m almost there myself – We have to see it as an achievement! I hope you had a fantastic birthday! 🙂
