Happy Birthday to Me

Happy Birthday to Me... Happy Birthday to Me.... Happy Birthday Dear Jamie, Mommy... Happy Birthday to Me

So, today is my birthday... non-monumental occasion. It is official .... the older I get, the less I really care about this day.

But, I think today, I finally realized why it has become so insignificant to me...

Someone asked me how old I was going to be, so in a smart mouthed tone, I responded "Twenty-Two". Ha Ha Ha (Plus 13).

Then after a few minutes of haggling, I stopped to think about 22 and honestly there is just no way I want to be any other age than what I am now. Yes, 22 had some fun times, but 22 was also lacking my heart and soul. At 22, I was not married, nor did I have either of my angels. Even if I were to think about being 34, a big part of my life would not be there.

So... I can honestly say that being 35 is PERFECT. I could not ask for anything other than being 36... then 37... etc.

I even struggled with birthday requests this year. I think I have finally reached the 100 % content stage. I just can't think of anything I want other than everything I already have. AHHHH.... what an awesome feeling.
