So...It's My Birthday :)

Well...it's my birthday. Today, I am 22 years old, although, I do feel much older than that (physically). This was the first year I didn't make a big deal out of my birthday. I didn't really care if people forgot or not, whenever I try to plan something for my own birthday, something bad always happens. So, I didn't plan a thing, and if people forget....well, I'll make sure to "forget" their birthday too. Totally kidding.

I'm not officially 22 years old until eight o'clock tonight. I've heard the story several times about the night I was born. My Grandmother was banned from my Mom's room, by my Mom, until I was born. You had to know my Grandmother to understand this move by my Mom. My Grandmother kept coming in the room, at the most crucial moments, asking how my Mom was and what she was doing and if I was here yet. To understand this to it's fullest extent, you would have to understand how my Grandmother asked questions. Anyway, it's hard to believe I am now only a year younger, than my Parents were when I was born. Guess that should make my Parents feel pretty old, but they really aren't.

Anyway, here's a picture of me when I was Bree's age. And yes, this is a picture of a picture, because the scanner is being stupid.

Happy Birthday!

I know what you mean by you feel older than you are. I always felt that way too. I think it is just being a young mom, growing up maturity wise and all. Just think some girls your age are just getting out of college and going home to Mom and Dad and starting out on their adult life.

But not us;) We know how to do it the fun way, right:O Kidding. I wouldn't change a thing I've done. I love my path, as I know you love yours.

Happy Birthday Sam:)

Happy belated birthday!

It's funny you mention you wouldn't officially be 22 until 8pm... I refuse to let anyone tell me "happy birthday" until my actual birth minute (3:42pm) has passed!
