As I celebrate the 4th anniversary of my 24th birthday, I thought it would be fun to look over the last year or 28.
Things I have learned:
- I will never stop missing my grandma.
- Love isn’t all you need—you also need a deep commitment to standing by that love through all the crap that comes your way.
- No matter how well you think you know your children, they will never stop surprising you.
- That’s a good thing.
- Taking time for me is not a guilty pleasure—it’s an absolute necessity.
- Needing time away from my children does not make me a bad mother (okay, so I’m still learning this one).
- Having a community—both here and in real life—is important.
- Merging the two completely rocks.
Things I have accomplished:
- starting a successful business
- maintaining my sanity (mostly) while leading a Brownie troop of 24 first graders
- stopping my mother-in-law from calling 3 times a day
- spiritual growth
- actually writing in my blog
Things I will do today:
- pretend to wear a crown
- pretend I’m not getting closer to 30
- get my nose pierced (If I write it down will that keep me from chickening out?)
- remind myself why I don’t want a tattoo
- have a nice dinner with my family
- eat dessert
- take a long bubble bath
Happy Birthday Heather! Hope it’s a great one!
Happy Birthday Heather!
Don’t forget to pierce Spencer’s nose with a chicken (Or something like that)!
Did you do it?! I want a picture!!
Damn, Happy B-Day!
Just console yourself with the fact you’re not an old fart like me!
Enjoy the bubble bath and other b-day treats!
