So yeah, I just turned thirty-one the other day. When the crap did I even turn twenty or twenty-five? It feels like I skipped over them completely and went straight into my thirties. Weird. Does anyone else feel this way? Like inside your head you're still in your late teens or early twenties?
When I was a teenager I always thought thirty-anything sounded old. Turns out it's not that old. Who knew? When I imagined myself as a thirty-something I knew for sure I would have everything figured out. That I wouldn't still be struggling with some of the same things I struggled with as a teen. That I would be confident and strong and perfect in lots of ways. Which is funny because I still struggle with all of the same things but it's okay - I'm working on it :) And I feel very happy about where my life is right now despite my many weaknesses. I actually love my life. At least I've got that part figured out.

You are OLD woman! I echo your sentiments. Some days I like my life more than others, but for the most, part, I'm feeling pretty good that we are moving in the right direction. SLOW AS IT MAY BE!!!
i like the pictures you posted on the blog title. Looks cute.
okay. number 1 - what the heck! you can't be 31 I'm still not that old and you are younger than me!
number 2 - yes I know what you mean the other day the Elders were over for dinner and (of course I still think I am 21 in my head) Cory leans over and tells me "Do you realize these boys are closer to Addison's age than ours?" Augh!!!!! not fair!!!!
I still don't feel like I'm "that" old but I guess it happens. Before you know it we are going to be wrinkled and withered and still thinking we are 20 something!
Feeling your youth - Terrie
