A day of birth...


What is a birthday other than getting one year older?  I used to really look forward to my birthdays as a kid: presents, cake, attention...this amazing day that was all about celebrating 'me.'  It's just not the same as an adult, now I don't really look forward to my birthday all that much...34 years old today, what's so great about 34?  My family loves to give me a hard time...Chayce made me a card last night and called me an old bag in it...it was pretty funny, pretty funny until James said he liked it...he better not think that he can start calling me "Old Bag"!!

My love made me brownies last night because I told him I'd rather have brownies this year than a cake.  SO I have been eating my birthday brownies all day today!  Not so good I'm thinking...

Okay, to answer my question about what's so great about turning 34???  Well I have so much to be thankful for...I have a husband who loves me like no other man ever has.  I have three beautiful, healthy kids who love me even when I'm at my worst and I am totally unreasonable!  I have a job...two jobs actually that I absolutely love.  I have an amazing, supportive family...and it's summertime, need I say more?  You know, as I think about it...my life is really just beginning!  Who knew 34 could be so great?!?

Now, if you will excuse me I'm off to get a pedicure that my mom gave me for my birthday...I guess I still do get presents and attention on my birthday!!  
YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!
