Next Tuesday is my 25th birthday and over the past few years, this day has seemed to kind of sneak up on me. So much goes on in May, with school coming to an end which now for me means, work coming to an end (YAY!) but which gives a whole to meaning to the word 'busy', anniversaries to celebrate, Mother's Day, people having babies, the Chill-In (one of my awesome family reunions), and in my family we have sooo many May birthdays...May is crazy! I'm secretly hoping my new nephew decides he wants to be born on May 11th...how cool would that be?!
Also, is it just me, or are birthdays kind of not such a big deal the older you get? I just kind of feel like "whatever, I'm one year older".
Lately, I've been thinking about what it means to be turning 25 and I am happily surprised at where I am in life right now. I love being a wife and mother but never thought I would be at this age. Life is good!
And I like getting older, for now anyway, and am hoping to some day start looking my age....especially since a student (not one of mine), thought I was another student the other day. I was like, excuse me, I'm not wearing a uniform, I'm in heals, and I have a wedding ring on...seriously?! It's time I stop looking young enough to be a senior in high school...
Anyway, I know this post doesn't make much sense, I'm tired and just rattling on. But, I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm lucky to be where I am, at this age, in this place, and even though birthdays aren't as monumental or exciting as they used to be, I'm happy.
