Nearing 40....

I've always been a person that doesn't like to get any older. I cried when I turned 20....mostly I think because I was no longer considered a teenager. Then I hit that 30 year mile mark. I didn't handle that any better. Although I have to admit my 30's have been the best years of my life...so far. I fell in love with my wonderful husband while in my 30's, we were married 3 days after I turned 34, had my first baby at 35, my second at 36 and my third at 39. Now I'm closing in on that BIG 4-0 and I'm having a very hard time with saying or even thinking that I'm going to be 40. Where have all those years gone? I have 1 week left to be 39...yes my BIG 40 will hit on the 23rd of this month. I'm sure that I will cry some sad tears because I'm no longer 30 something, I will be 40 on March 23rd. Hoping that I will have a good day but in the back of my mind I just can't image turning 40 being good. But, hey I am looking forward to my 6th wedding anniversary that will happen on March 26th. Cheers to the 30's and watch out 40's!

Embrace those years! I was devastated when I turned 30. After that it just didn't matter anymore. Now that 60 is only one year away, I'm ready. BRING IT ON!

Hope you have a great birthday with many smiles following those few tears.
