My Birthday Wish

Today marks the beginning of my journey on the slippery slope that is the latter half of my thirties, my entry into a new demographic category, as I can no longer choose the bubble for "19-34"......yes, I am turning 35 today.

I am choosing to look at this questionable milestone with a glass-half-full perspective. Just for today, I will try to look at myself through Anna's eyes. So, I have but one birthday wish for myself:

May I always be as intelligent, invincible, wealthy, energetic and impervious to injury as my daughter thinks I am.

Welcome to 35.....
Have a great day, everyone!

  1. It's funny because I thought the same thing when I turned 35, "I have to pick a new category for age on those silly questionnaires!"  We are no longer lumped with teenagers.  That is not a bad thing, RIGHT?!?!?!?

  2.  Right!!! I have to say, as much as I sometimes lament aging, I would not go back to my teenage years for anything!! I remind myself I am blessed with an amazing daughter and wonderful partner, family and friends. I know myself so much better than I did then, I have a career, I am settled.....no way would I want to be 19 again. :) Although I wouldn't mind 27. LOL.
