I’m now closer to 40 than I am to 30. And I’m okay with it.
My older sisters warned me to watch out for the accidental 35 baby. I bucked the trend and had a baby at 35 on purpose.
Ella, in her frank eight year-old fashion, heard I was turning 36 and declared me “Old!” I just shrugged and declared that I’m not even halfway through my life.
I remember thinking my aunt was old at 30 and now I realize how young she really was. “Old” gets older as your parents age.
When I was 13, the only good thing about 30 seemed the guarantee of no acne. I woke up this morning with zit above my lip.
My kids worried that they didn’t have a gift for me. I told them the best gift would be no fighting.
I woke up this morning thinking, “I’m happy.”
Hello 36.
Exactly. My parents are SO young.
My parents are in their 60s but they seem the same as they always have. And I don’t really *feel* older, but of course I am!
I turned 35 in April, and had my first LO in November. I don’t feel “old” but it’s hard to imagine being 70 when my LO is 35. Of course, my parents aren’t aging at all, so that will make some interesting family pictures 😉 lol
