I'm 40!!

Where has the time gone?? I can't believe I'm 40!! It's funny my Aunt Charlotte who is almost 80 once told me that she has never felt her age..She still feels like she's 20..One of the many secrets to aging well I suppose!
My kids have been hand scribbling Happy Birthday on coloring pages..They are so sweet.

My girls are so sweet :) Love them so!

I feel in my heart that 40 is going to be fabulous! Here are a few things I have figured out :

I am more comfortable in my skin..I don't care what others think! I wish I had learned this earlier! LOL
Family is the MOST IMPORTANT thing in my life!!
I realized how lucky I am to have a family that actually likes each other and spends the holidays together..it's hard to believe that many families don't!
While I am sad that my career in EMS has come to an end, I am excited for the new things I am doing!
I am a Scrapbook Artist!! And LOVE what I do!
I need to get myself healthy! No more excuses! I need to be here for my kids!

I thank God that I am who I am..I'm so thankful that I am a child of God and for the blessings that He has given me..I want a better, richer relationship with Him. I know that the things I have learned about myself and others is because my walk with Him!
I can't wait to see what this new decade brings me!
