Thirty – Two

March 5, 2016

birthday-roses

Maybe it’s because I’m growing up (emphasis on I’m not quite there yet, ha!)… But this year, I chose to think about my birthday a little differently. I’m not sure why it’s taken me thirty-two years to come to this conclusion: birthdays are about gratitude. Yes, they’re about feeling special and celebrating in special ways! However, more importantly, birthdays are for celebrating life, the ones that graciously gave it to us, and all that’s good because of such. So here’s to wishing “Happy Birthday” not just to another year older; but to all that makes life extraordinary! Now where’s some cake? I’m ready to blow me out some birthday candles!! Meep!

    Happy Happy Happy Birthday!
    Your thirties are a time for enjoying your life; your home, your kids, your husband, your family and your friends.
    It is a decade to not only show those you care about what they mean to you, but a decade to learn how to be more kinder to yourself.
    As someone turning the big 5-0 at the end of this year, there are days when I feel 30 again and then my body reminds me that I’m not!
    So enjoy every beautiful thing in your life [even the negative ones] because it’s life can only get better from here!
