HOW OLD!?!?!
I had my birthday on Wednesday. Although I still feel like I'm in my twenties, I just turned 39! This was kind of a hard birthday; the last year of this decade of my life. And 40 just sounds old! I was feeling a bit sorry for myself and then I thought, why should I feel sad? I'm 39 and have everything I could ever ask for in life. I'm married to the most amazing man who is my best friend and such a wonderful father to our children. I have four absolutely adorable children whom I love so much and bring such joy into my life every day. I am healthy. My husband has a good job which, especially in this economy, is a huge blessing. I'm blessed to have good friends and live in a place that we love. We couldn't ask for a better ward or neighborhood. After thinking of all this I realized I'm pretty lucky. I'm sure I'll look back in ten years and wish I was turning 39 instead of 49 so I better enjoy it while I have it!
