There’s No Better Way…

To spend a Birthday than with the ones you love!

Today I turned 32.  Not 22, not 30, but….THIRTY TWO YEARS OLD!

Where in the world did the time go?  Now, I’m not freaked about turning 32 – I’m just freaked that I am 32!   I don’t feel like what  I thought  I would at 32.  I mean – I have been married for 5 years (been with my husband for 10 years total), I have 2 children and I’m a work at home mom running a daycare and  family.

No offense to those around me, past or present, but I thought you guys seemed much older than I feel!  HAHAHAHA!

I do feel old some days, but it’s the weirdest thing…

When you’re younger, a teen or early twenties, you see those around you that are adults with real jobs and real families and they just seem like 32 year old adults.  Sometimes,  I still feel like I’m in my early twenties with all these responsibilities and life experiences.  Don’t get me wrong…I don’t want to go back to 20.  I’m loving  my life right here, right now!  It’s just amazing to me to actually be 32.  (sigh)

Celebrating my Birthday turned into a weekend long affair. It was great!  I have the most wonderful and loving family and friends ever!

A two hour Psychic/Medium appointment (our 1st time going) with my sister left me ready for some adult beverages and an adult dinner on Saturday night.  (I know, some believe and some don’t.  This guy would have made you a believer!!)  Had an amazing meal  and met up with some friends at a really fun bar afterwards.  I hadn’t been to a bar to “hang out” in 4 years – I kid you not!   It was fun, but I was hoarse and tired the next day. (I AM 32  now!)

A relaxing day on Sunday with dinner with my husband and kids with gifts and steaks and cake!  THE BEST!

Monday – today – my actual birthday was wonderfully spent with my family and my daycare kids with a pizza party and cake. We played games of Musical Chairs and Duck, Duck, Goose and I spent the evening dancing to kids songs and teaching Ella and Andrew to flip over.

So…YES, I am 32 years old today.  And yes, I did pick green beans out of my hair at dinner tonight – a totally different kind of night than I spent 10 years ago on my birthday.

But, would I ever go back to 22?

Nope!

Would you?!

I sometimes have to pinch myself: Am I really 43 years old? LOL Somedays I feel like I’m 60 and other days, still a teenager. Enjoy it, as it sure beats the alternative! Birthdays are awesome! Cute pics.

Happy birthday! :)

I’m fine with being 42. I just wish I could live my forties with the body I had in my twenties.
