Closing in on my 40's...


Some may balk at my claim that I truly don't care how old I am...but I don't. Age is simply a number after all. Besides, if you really think about it, with the belief system I have, we lived in the pre-existance and how many birthdays did I have there? Hundreds? Thousands? So...my age here? PSHAW!!!! Doesn't matter!!!

Why yes, I am phylisophical genius!!!

Anyway, I am nearing my 39th birthday...in 6 months and I've begun to think about all the fabulous things that will happen in my 40's. You see, in my 20's I was married and had all of my children. My 30's...guiding my kids to the incredibly awesome people they are becoming.

Here's my list of what can or will happen in my Fabulous 40's:

Teaching my kids how to drive
Kids all gradute from high school
Taking my kids off to college
3 college graduations (crossing fingers)
Sending my son and maybe even daughters on a mission
Becoming an empty nester
Possible weddings
Slightest chance of a grandchild
Learning to vacation without my kids

Can this fill an entire decade?

And just think how close I'll come to the senior discounts!!!!

I think you are going to be rather busy! Isn't it funny how so much can happen in a decade. I would say your stats are pretty impressive so far and the next one looks like it will continue to top the previous ones! You deserve all the happiness in the world!

40 is the new 20! ;) I am quickly approaching 37 and looking forward to it. My next decade will be filled with similar things as yours. The way I see it, it will be one of the most important decades of my life. Bring it on.
