On Monday I turned 49! When some of the other teachers at school found out that I was 49 they said "You're Kidding?!?" Well either that meant I looked so young that they were astonished or it meant that they couldn't get over that they were working with someone so old!
Whichever it was I am so thankful that I have lived to celebrate my 49th birthday.
Barbie and Belinda - 2 of my dear friends that I knew growing up both passed away from cancer in their early 40's. After experiencing that, I have never been shy about telling my age. Yes, I do have a few health issues to deal with, but don't we all. So I am thankful for a beautiful life of family and friends and I look forward to the next decade of life.
