Taking on my 30's

You read the heading right. I am planning to take on my 30's and I hope to do it well. Yesterday I went to bed still in my 20's and today I woke up to the realization that I am indeed a woman. I know I've been one for a while now, but the reality of it just had not set in until this morning. "30" ponder that for a minute... what feels like not all that long ago "30" was old. Yet now that I am 30 I wonder why I ever thought that. 30 is not old! Now I don't even believe that 50 is old. When did that change, I wonder? So since I am still young I am going to make the most of my 30's.
Here are a few things I will be able to experience in my 30's:
1) my husband will turn 40
2) the girls will cross major milestones... 13 and 16!
3) Jeremiah will start school
4) the girls will learn to drive
5) everyone in my house will reach an age to be at home alone
6) I will have a 20 year anniversary
7) Jeremiah will become a teen
I know it all sounds funny, but I am looking forward to all the things to come. And i am thankful to God for all the many things he has blessed me with.

Happy 30 friend! I'm glad to see that you are embracing it with a positive attitude! Maybe some of that will rub off on me come May...
