you seriously rule.

and the years keep ticking by.

it was my 34th birthday yesterday and from the outside, it was a lovely day. i’m very aware of how lucky i am in countless ways. really. but there’s been a bit of a grey cloud hanging over me this weekend. 

i’m never one to get too hung up on age, but this is a tough one for me. my early 30s are officially gone and life is changing…i can feel it. change isn’t a bad thing, but it makes me uneasy sometimes. 

for several decades of my life, a birthday was a big deal. but now it’s much less so. that’s growing up i guess. even my parents forgot this year. but a birthday is a fresh start and i’m hoping that this year will be better than the last. and in the mean time, i’m going to spend the next couple of weeks thinking about how i’m going to make my son’s 2nd birthday the best ever! that’s growing up i guess…
