A Birthday Celebration



The timing worked out great for today's Celebrate the Small Things post.  Today is my birthday! Yay me! I'm not one of those women who gets caught up on age or who wishes to stay 29 forever.  Nope.  Last year I turned thirty and was thrilled.  Today I am thirty-one, and that doesn't bother me at all.

The truth is sometimes I still act like a teenager.  Not in that drama-seeking kind of way but in that goofy kind of way.  I like to be silly sometimes.  And if people find me to be immature, that's their problem, not mine.  Being silly keeps me feeling young, and that's more important than being concerned with my actual age. 

So what am I doing to celebrate? Working.  I know, not exactly exciting.  However, tomorrow I will be spending the day with family, and we will be going out to dinner.  My dad and I share the same birthday (he likes to say I was his birthday present) and we always celebrate together.  Joinging us will be my husband, my mom, several aunts and uncles and cousins.  It'll be a good time.

So what are you celebrating today? Share below!

    1. Thank you! We actually have snow today, which shouldn't be unusual. I can't remember the last time we had snow on my birthday, though. :)

  6. A happy grand very birthday wish to you! I love your attitude. I love my age each year, even while it there's more and more things that take about a minute to remember! That just adds to my charm!

  7. A motivating discussion is worth comment. I do believe that
    you need to publish more about this topic, it might
    not be a taboo subject but usually folks don't talk about these issues. To the next! Kind regards!!

  9. I do believe all the ideas you have presented on your post.
    They're very convincing and will definitely work. Nonetheless, the posts are too short for starters. Could you please extend them a little from next time? Thanks for the post.

  10. Happy Birthday! ^_^
    Sounds like you had a fun day planned. Hope it was a good one.

    It's a relief to hear someone say something positive about turning 30 for a change. My time is coming up next year.
