Turning "40"

Ok so my birthday is Sat and yes I will be 40! Oh my 40 I can hardly believe it. Just doesn't seem possible. How can I be 40?



Don't get me wrong.....I am very thankful that the Lord has seen fit to give me these years, but the thing is I just don't feel like I should be 40. Does that make any sense to anyone? It's kinda hard to explain. I guess I've just always thought of my self as "the young one" after all I am the "baby" in my family so my older brother and sister are the "old" ones and I'm the baby!!!



My wonderful mother and sister gave me an OH No the BIG "40" party at church last night. It was really nice. I got a lot of nice cards and even one sympathy card (thanks Sherri and Megan), Candles (love those candles) I burn them everyday so I was in need of new ones, couple of gift cards to Pete's (our all time favorite place to hang out on Sunday nights after church), And best of all MONEY!!! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful church family and could not have asked for a better birthday party! Even a 40th one.



Most of you who will read this are still young and haven't made it out of the 20's or 30's yet so you may think I am crazy or yes old but you know what? I am turning 40. It's a coming unless the good Lord decides to call me home before Sat or he comes back and takes us all home and what a wonderful birthday that would be.....so I better get use to being in the 40's club. I have so much to be thankful for, My wonderful family and I have pretty good health (physical not mental). All in all I guess 40 won't be so bad after all.

Will let you know how my big day goes Sat. and what special plans my wonderful husband and children have planned for me....Better be good!

Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend...Last holiday of the summer..Kinda sad. It's almost fall!

Till next time!
