So I reached a little milestone in my life on March 24
th. I turned 30. I dreaded it coming for a few years and I kept thinking it was because I was getting "old". Well, it isn't that. It is that it is an end of an era. As long as I was twenty - something I could goof off and screw up and people would just say "well, she IS only twenty (something)." Now I can't rely on that anymore, I have to GROW UP! Besides my twenties were a blast and so many wonderful things happened in that decade that I am not sure if I can really top it. I became a mother two wonderful times, I met and married my soul mate, I graduated from college, and I had a lot of tough times that built...character. I had a stiff
upper lip the whole day, I never shed a tear - unlike my 25
th birthday when I sat in a snow bank bawling my head off because I was SO OLD! I made it through with dignity and grace, I guess that comes from being older and wiser!
Now to the exciting part - my present from Kent. For almost four year now I have only had an
engagement ring. We were always planning on getting a wedding band, but life happened and before we know it, we are four years with no wedding band. Anyway Kent got me the lower band for my birthday!!! It is so beautiful all put together, the picture does not do it justice. Ya, I'm spoiled, I will never deny that!!
